Question

how to find the electron proton and neutron of oxygen​

Answer 1

Answer:

Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8)

Answer 2

Explanation:

Atomic no. = no. of electrons(in it's original form)

atomic no. of oxygen is 8, therefore the no. of electrons in oxygen is 8.

no.of electron = no.of proton ( in it's original form)

since the no. of electron is 8 therefore the no. of proton is also 8.

mass no. = no. of electron + no. of neutron

16 = 8+ no. of neutron

16-8= no. of neutron

Hence, the no. of neutron is 8.
