The atomic number(Z) is equal to the number of protons to equal to number of electrons.
The number of neutrons is equal to atomic mass minus the atomic number
n=A-Z
For Zn^2+, Z=28, e=28
For iron, Z=25,A=55
The number of neutrons is 55-25=30
The charge is zero
For O^2-, Z=8+2=10, n=p=10
The number of neutrons is 16-10=6
For sulfur, Z=16,A=34
For S2-, Z=16+2=18, A=34
The charge is 2-
- The atomic number is the basis of the periodic table.
- It is equal to the number of protons.
- The number of neutrons is atomic mass minus atomic number.
