Carbon-14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus, making it an isotope of carbon. Since it is a neutral atom, it also has 6 electrons, which balance the positive charge of the protons in the nucleus.
A carbon-12 atom has 6 electrons. The atomic number of carbon is 6, which determines the number of electrons in a neutral carbon atom.
Carbon has four electrons in its outer shell and needs four more electrons to complete its octet.
Carbon is a non metal element. There are 12 electrons in a single atom.
A carbon atom with the symbol 12C has 6 electrons since the atomic number of carbon is 6, indicating the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom are the same.
The C4- ion has a total of 18 electrons. Carbon normally has 6 electrons, but the negative charge of -4 means that there are 4 extra electrons added to the ion.
In order to be neutral, carbon needs 14 electrons.
4 electrons
Carbon does not have an atomic number of 14.
Carbon 14 has 6 protons, 8 neutrons, and (in the neutral atom) 6 electrons.
Carbon is the group 14, period 2 chemical element. Its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p2. Thus, carbon has 2 electrons in its 2p subshell.
In CH4O, there are 14 valence electrons: 4 from carbon, 1 from hydrogen, and 6 from oxygen.
The atomic number of carbon is 6 and it has six electrons. The mass number of it is 41 and therefore it has 8 neutrons.
Carbon - 14 has two more electrons than carbon - 12.
The carbon group, also known as Group 14 on the periodic table, has four valence electrons. This group includes carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, and lead.
Carbon has an atomic number of 6 or 6 electrons. This is an isotope which means it has the same electrons. It is in group 14 so it has 4 valence electrons.
if its not an ion it has 6
False. Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon that differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei, not electrons. Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, while carbon-14 has 8 neutrons. The number of electrons in an atom is determined by its atomic number, which is the same for both isotopes of carbon (6 electrons).
