give the number of particles for the ion 93 Zr+3

Question

give the number of particles for the ion 93 Zr+3

Answer 1

If by 93 you mean the mass number of the isotope, then you have the following subatomic particles:

 

40 protons in the nucleus (the atomic number of Zr is 40)

93 - 40 = 53 neutrons in the nucleus

40 - 3 = 37 electrons in the electron shells (40 electrons in the neutral atom minus 3 from triple ionization)

 

That is 40 + 53 + 37 = 130 subatomic particles
