The number of protons and neutrons is not changed; sodium lose one electron and chlorine gain an electron.
the average amount of neutrons in chlorine is 18, but there could be more or less with the different isotopes
A chloride ion has 18 electrons. This is one more than the neutral chlorine atom, which has 17 electrons. The one additional electron gained during ionization is responsible for the 1- charge of the ion.
An argon nucleus typically contains 18 protons and either 20 or 22 neutrons, depending on the isotope of argon. The most common isotope, argon-40, has 18 protons and 22 neutrons.
An alpha particle is composed of two protons and two neutrons.
In-115 isotope has 66 neutrons
An atom of chlorine has 17 protons, while an atom of sodium has 11 protons. Therefore, an atom of chlorine has 6 more protons than an atom of sodium.
Sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons.
elecrons - 11 neutrons - 12 protons - 11
Sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons.
The number of neutrons in chlorine is 18 (no of neutrons=atomic mass-no of protons=35-17=18)
The number of neutrons in chlorine is 18 (no of neutrons=atomic mass-no of protons=35-17=18)
Electrons~ 11 Neutrons~11 12Protons~11Youre welcome(;___________________________ (Improved answer) No, It has 11 electrons, 11 protons and 12 neutrons.
The atomic number of sodium is 11 so it has 11 protons. For Na-23 there are 12 neutrons (23 - 11 = 12)
11 protons and 12 neutrons are there in Na-23.
30 or 32 neutrons, because chlorine has two isotopes.
Every chlorine atom has 17 protons; 17 is the atomic number of chlorine. However, chlorine has two isotopes that are stable against radioactive decay. These have mass numbers of 35 and 37, which have 18 and 20 neutrons respectively.
Chlorine exist as two isotopes(same number of electrons and protons but different number of neutrons), although there are traces of one more but we're not to sure. ~70% of Chlorine is Chlorine-35 which contains 17 electrons and 18 neutrons ~30% of Chlorine is Chlorine-37 which contains 17 electrons and 20 neutrons and ≤1% of Chlorine-36........
