The number of electrons corresponds to the "index" number of the element in the Periodic Table. The 8th element is Oxygen, which has 8 atoms when neutral.
That didnt answer the question.
ANSWER
Neon has 8 electrons :)

How many electrons does sulfur-33 have?
Sulfur-33 has 16 electrons since it is a neutral atom and the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus for a neutral atom.
What do you need to build a neutral atom?
To build a neutral atom, you need an equal number of protons (positive charge) in the nucleus as there are electrons (negative charge) orbiting around it. The number of protons determines the element, so having the same number of electrons will make the atom electrically neutral. Electrons are in different energy levels around the nucleus, and their arrangement determines the atom's reactivity and chemical properties.
How many negative charges are in the atom?
That depends on what element it's an atom of. In a neutral atom of Hydrogen . . . 1 In a neutral atom of Uranium . . . 92 In a neutral atom of any other naturally occuring element . . . between 2 and 91.
What ion has 8 protons and 10 electrons?
There is no atom or element that has one proton, one neutron and ten electrons. Duterium has one proton, one neutron and one electron (in a neutral atom). Tritium has one proton, two neutrons and one electron (in a neutral atom), but that is the closest. In any neutral atom the number of electrons will equal the number of protons in the nucleus of that atom. An atom with one proton in its nucleus and 10 electrons just isn't possible.
Which atom has only 6 electrons?
The neutral atom is Carbon, but other ions can have only 6 electrons.
What is the number of electrons in a neutral atom of an element on an periodic table?
There is none, but a neutral atom is called a neutron. There is no neutral element.
An element has an atomic number of 30 how many protons and electrons are in a neutral atom of the element?
It will have 30 protons and 30 electrons if the atom is neutral.
If you know the number of electrons in a neutral atom can you determine what the element is?
Yes, in a neutral atom the number of electrons and protons is equal, and it is the number of protons that determines what element the atom is. So, by looking at the number of electrons you can tell what element it is.
What element has eighteen electrons?
As a neutral atom (When it is not an ion) the element argon has eighteen electrons.
What number of an element can be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom?
The atomic number of an element can be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom. It is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which also corresponds to the number of electrons in a neutral atom.
Identify the element whose electrically neutral atom has 2 energy levels with 2 electrons in the outer energy level?
beryllium
Is it true that the number of electrons in an element is the same for all neutral atom of that element?
Yes, this is true for electrons (and protons) of all neutral atoms of an element.
A chloride ion has the same number of electrons as a neutral atom of what element?
A chloride ion (Cl-) has the same number of electrons as a neutral atom of the element argon (Ar).
How do you find the number of protons or electrons in a neutral atom of an element?
The number of protons in an atom is equal to the atomic number of the element, which can be found on the periodic table. Since atoms are electrically neutral, the number of electrons in a neutral atom is also equal to the number of protons.
What number of electrons in a neutral atom of an element will be equal to?
The amount of electrons is balanced by the same amount of protons in a neutral atom, such as for the neutral hydrogen atom; it has 1 proton and 1 electron.
What element has 17 electrons in a neutral atom?
I believe it is Chlorine? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
What element is metallic 29 electrons?
The neutral atom of copper has 29 electrons.
