In ammonium ion the number of P,E and neutrons are given below :

Number of protons = 11

Number of electrons =10

Number of neutrons = 7

Explanation:

  1. In an ammonium ion (NH₄⁺) ion, there is one nitrogen atom and four hydrogen atoms.
  2. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 , and hydrogen has an atomic number of 1 , and so the total atomic number of the hydrogen will be 1⋅4=4 . So, there will be a total of 7+4=11 protons.
  3. Now, we know number of electrons are equal to protons therefore , it should also be 11 but due to positive charge it is reduced by 1 .So, it becomes 10 electrons .
  4. The neutrons are found by adding neutrons of nitrogen as hydrogen lacks neutrons .So, it is 7 in number .
