Solution:
- In a neutral atom, atomic number represents the number of protons inside the nucleus and equal number of electrons around it. Therefore, the number of total electrons in molecule of $CO _2$ $=$ electrons present in one carbon atom
$=6+2 \times 8=22$.
$+2 \times$ electrons present in one oxygen atom
