Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When there is a negative charge on an atom then we add the charge with the number of electrons. Whereas when there is a positive charge on an atom then we subtract the charge from the number of electrons.
Atomic number of chlorine is 17. So, number of electrons present in 
is 17 + 1 = 18 electrons.
Atomic number of cobalt is 27. So, number of electrons present in 
is 27 - 4 = 23 electrons.
Atomic number of iron is 26. So, number of electrons present in 
is 26 - 2 = 24 electrons.
Atomic number of vanadium is 23. So, number of electrons present in V is 23 electrons.
Atomic number of scandium is 21. So, number of electrons present in 
is 21 + 2 = 23 electrons.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species, has the greatest number of electrons.

AND NEUTRONS
The atoms in a compound are held together by a chemical bond. The chemical bonds can be either covalent bonds or ionic bonds. Both the bonds are considered very strong bonds. These bonds are mainly formed by sharing of electrons or in the case when one of the elements making the compound donates electron to the other element. The nucleus of each atom attracts to form a strong bond. This property of attraction between the nucleus of the atoms actually helps in forming the chemical bonds. </span>
