Chromium has a total of 28 neutrons. This is found because we subtract the number of protons (the atomic number) from the mass number. 52 minus 24 gives us 28. It also has 24 electrons.

Answer:

It has 28 neutrons

Explanation:

Hi, by definition the mass number of an element if given by:

[tex]A=n_{protons}+n_{neutrons}[/tex]

Knowing the mass number of chromiun and the amount of protons it has:

[tex]52=24+n_{neutrons}[/tex]

[tex]n_{neutrons}=52-24[/tex]

[tex]n_{neutrons}=28[/tex]

It has 28 neutrons
