Answer:

17 protons

19 neutrons

Explanation:

Chlorine will always have the same amount of protons, and that would be 17 protons.

The atomic mass will change according to how many neutrons are present.

Cl - 35 is comprised of 17 protons and 18 neutrons.

We want to find Cl - 36:

We simply add 1 neutron. 18 + 1 = 19 neutrons.
