Answer:
Neutron number = 12
Electron number = 10
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Atomic number = 10
Mass number = 22
Neutron number =?
Electron number =?
Proton number = atomic number = 10
Mass number = Neutron + proton
Neutron = Mass number — proton
Neutron number = 22 — 10
Neutron number = 12
Since the atom is neutral, the protons and the electrons are equal i.e
Electron number = proton number
Electron number = 10
