Answer:

Neutrons = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Protons = 47 Electrons = 47 Neutrons = 61

An atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons. Atoms have no overall electrical charge because the number of positive protons equals the number of negative electrons. Number of protons = atomic number. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons.

Atomic Number = Number of Protons OR Electrons Mass

Number = Number of Protons AND Neutrons
