A radium atom has 88 protons and 226 neutrons. How many electrons does it have?

Sagot :

Answer:

No. of electrons = 88

Explanation:

Given that,

No. of protons = 88

No. of neutrons = 226

We need to find the number of electrons it have in a radium atom.

In an atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. There are 88 protons in this case.

Hence, there are 88 electrons in the radium atom.
