yes sorry I meant electrons!
its cause they didnt even teach us that yet they expect us to know it like if we were born knowing it! ahhhhh

2 on the inner ring
4 on the next ring
8 on the subsequent ring
16 on the following...

Chlorine is atomic number 17: 17 Protons, 17 electrons. They fill their orbitals as follows: 1s(2) 2s(2) 2p(6) 3s(2) 3p(5) . Since the outer orbital, the 3p is missing one electron to being full, chlorine would have a charge of -1. (The 3rd shell has a total of 7 electrons, and 8 would fill it). Thus is it in Group VII of the periodic table, the "halogens," which literally means "salt formers" or something like that!

I think you would like the http://www.chemicalelements.com/ site better. Chlorine has the atomic number of 17 and has 17 protons in the nucleus, 17 electrons in the orbitals, and 18 neutrons in the nucleus.. You will not find any protons in the orbitals because they makeup the nucleus. The orbitals only contain electrons.

Um.....your problem goes much deeper than ELECTRON rings. Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom. With the neutrons. Only electrons exist in the rings.

Is that a trick question?
The answer is: Zero protons.
Protons are in the nucleus. Electrons are in the rings. There are zero protons in the rings.

go to this website: http://www.mvschools.org/ms/projects/html/blue/chlorine.htm
it has a picture of a model
there are 2 in the first ring, eight in the second ring, and 7 in the third

wait protons and neutrons are in the nucleus... so only the electrons are on the ring... wait im losing everything that i learned last year..

how many klingons go on uranus? Im sure you could extrapolate from the examples in your book or notes, and figure it out yourself.

If by "rings" you mean the orbits, none.
