An iron ion has 26 protons and 23 electrons. Electrons have a charge of -1 and protons have a charge of +1. What is the charge of the ion?

Respuesta :

There are 3 more protons than electrons, so the net charge is +3. You can find this by doing 26+(-23)=3.
Hello!

There are 26 protons (+26)
There are 23 electrons( -23)

Add these together

26 + -23 = 3
