The ion with +3 net charge has 5 electrons. Thus, option B is correct.
The atom has been the smallest unit of the matter. It has been consisted of protons, neutrons, and electrons as the subatomic particles.
In an atom, the number of protons has been equivalent to the number of electrons. The net positive charge has been the representation of the loss of the electrons in the atom.
The given atom has been consisted of +3 charge, thus the number of electrons has been 3 less than the total electrons.
Protons has been equivalent to the electrons, thus the electrons has been 8. The net positive charge has been +3, thus, the electrons has been 5.
The number of electrons in the atom has been 5. Thus, option B is correct.
