In this compound, mercury forms an ion with a charge of +2,+2, and sulfur forms an ion with a charge of −2.−2. Complete the following table, showing the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons for the two most common isotopes of mercury (Hg200Hg200 and Hg202Hg202) in both the elemental and ion forms.

Isotope	Form	Protons	Neutrons	Electrons
Hg200Hg200	Atom (charge=0)(charge=0)
	Ion (charge=+2)(charge=+2)
