Question

The ion of an element has 3 positive charges. Mass number of the atom is 27 and the number of neutrons is 14. What is the number of electrons in the ion?.

Answer 1

Answer:It has 10 elecyrons

Explanation:ion has 3 positive charges

Mass is 27 and neutron are 14

So 27-14=13

So 13 protons means 13 electrons

But has 3 positive charges which means 3 electrons are lost so

13-3=10

So it has 10 electrons
