Answer:

Explanation:

An ion has a net charge of 3+

ion has 8 protons

How many electrons does it have

A neutral atom has equal number of electrons and protons.

If a neutral atom loses electron it acquires a positive charge.

So to acquire 3+ charge the atom must have lost three electrons.

So the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons by 3.

Answer is 5 tho idk why the options so weird. anyways u have to use the periodic table, check for the element which has 8 protons. this will be oxygen.

to calculate electrons, take 16-8 hence u will have 8 electrons.

qn said u have net charge of 3+. this means that u have to minus 3 from the electrons

so 8-3 = 5

Nuclear fusion involves the combination of two light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus with emission of energy.

A nuclear reaction equation is a representation of the change that takes place as one nucleus is converted to another. A nuclear transformation could be any of the following;

Nuclear fission
Nuclear fusion
Transmutation

We can know that a nuclear fusion is taking place when two nuclei come together to form a larger nucleus and emit energy. I would identify a nuclear fusion when;
