What is the charge of an ion that contains 21 protons and 19 electrons

Sc2+

this is the answer bc 21 protons times 2 = 42-19 electrons = 23. 23-21= 2 electrons that are lost

Solutions

Expert Solution

atomic number equal to no of protons

atomic number   = no of protons

atomic number   = 21

no of electrons = 19

Charge on atom = no of protons - no of electrons

                           = 21-19 = 2

Sc -2e^- -----------------> Sc^+2

21e^-        19e^-                

21p                                   21p

A helium nucleus (called an alpha particle) contains 2 neutrons and 2 protons with no electrons. If any electrons are added, there is a negligible amount of mass added but obviously one negative charge per electron is added. Three particles are injected into a constant B-field of 2T at a velocity of 3×106ms. The first particle is only the alpha particle (He++), the second particle is a nucleus with 1 electron (He+), and the third particle is a nucleus with...
