If the atom was in the ground state it would have the same number of electrons as protons which is 8.

But if it has a charge of 3 = then it only has 8 - 3 = 5 electrons

5 electrons.

Answer from: jessicawelch25

Answer : The number of electrons present ion ion are, 5 electrons.

Explanation :

As we know that an atom is the smallest unit of a matter that consist of three subatomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

The protons and the neutrons are located inside the nucleus or center of the nucleus where the mass of the an atom is concentrated and the electrons are located around the nucleus.

The protons are positively charged, the electrons are negatively charged and the neutrons are neutral that means it has no charge.

According to the question, an ion has net charge of (+3) that means it loses three electrons.

And the total number of proton present in ion = 8

The number of electrons present in ion = 8 -3 = 5 electrons

Therefore, the number of electrons present ion ion are, 5 electrons.

Mass is the amount of matter in an object. weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. say for example, you travel to the moon which has a different gravitational field compared to the gravitational field of earth. (gravitational fields: earth = 1, moon = 0.165) now when you are on the moon, the pull of gravity on you is different than on the earth. and as weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object, that means yes, your weight can and will change on the moon. however, on the moon, on earth or even on jupiter, the amount of mass inside of you remains the same. meaning your physical mass remains constant. in conclusion it is possible for your weight to change as your mass remains constant.
