The atomic number of lithium (Li) is 3, and so it has 3 protons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons depends on which isotope of lithium you have. The most common isotope (92.5%) is 7Li with 4 neutrons.
A neutral atom of lithium has three electrons in it. Lithium has two electron shells that have electrons in them. The 1s shell has a pair of electrons in it (the maximum), and the 2s shell has one electron in it. Note that this is a neutral atom of lithium, and lithium is reactive. It would like to loan that 2s electron out if it can. It will react with air, either with the oxygen in it or the moisture, if there is any.

The atomic number of Lithium is 3. That means there are 3 protons and 3 electrons.
Calcium has 20 protons and electrons and a number of neutrons different for each isotope..
3: The total number of electrons in any neutral atom is always the same as the atomic number of the element.
Calcium has atomic number 20. A neutron calcium atom therefore has 20 protons and 20 electrons. Ca2+ has a charge of positive 2, so it must have 2 more protons than electrons. Ca2+ has 18 electrons.
35 protons, 36 electrons
3 protons, 3 electrons and 4 neutrons
The element lithium has 3 protons and 3 electrons.

Lithium has three protons and three electrons. The number of electrons always equals the number of protons. Lithium has two isotopes, one with three neutrons and one with four neutrons.
The lithium ion is essentially the same as the lithium atom, except it has lost 1 electrons. The number of protons and neutrons remain the same. Thus, the lithium ion, Li+ has 3 neutrons, just like the lithium atom.
Lithium is element 3 on the periodic table and has 3 electrons and 3 protons

3He has 2 protons, 1 neutron, and 2 electrons.
3 protons and 2 electrons.
The atomic number of Lithium is 3. That means there are 3 protons and 3 electrons.
None. Protons and electrons are not constituents of a neutron. Both neutrons and protons are constituents of an atom's nucleus (core), while the electrons are situated in the electronic cloud around the nucleus.
Lithium has three subatomic particles: 3 protons, 4 neutrons, and 3 electrons.
