not enough information, number of neutrons is equal to the molecular weight, minus the number of protons. The answer that you are looking for is that it is an Ion with 3 electrons (-)

Net charge of each subatomic particle:
Protons (+1)
Neutrons (0)
Electrons (-1)

4. There is the same amount of protons as neutrons if the atomic number is given and not the weight. the charge speaks of the number of electrons to protons, in this case, being 3 electrons.

Don't listen to these people. The atom has 3 neutron. That is why it has a +1 charge. And atoms don't always have the same number of neutrons to protons. Variation in neutrons creates isotopes.

use the formula to artwork out the energies at n=a million and n=4. the distinction is the skill that is going to grant the gentle photon. you will likely choose to appreciate capability = h * frequency to be having questions like this, so extremely divide E with the help of h (Planck's consistent) and there you bypass.
