The atom has 6 electrons. This is because the amount of protons and electrons have to remain equal in order to have a neutral atom(with the exception of ions). The number of neutrons can vary, and those variances are called isotopes.

The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.Therefore,the number of electrons is 6.
