What are the noble gases that Na 1 and Cl-1 resemble in there electron configuration?
Na+ has 10 electrons and is isoelectronic with neon. Cl- has 18 electrons and is isoelectronic with argon.
What is the most common type of radioactive decay?
Sometimes there is, depending on the type of decay. In the so-called "beta decy", the atom emits either an electron or an anti-electron.
How many electrons would polonium lose to become stable?
Atoms become chemically neutral with either 2 or 8 electrons in the outermost orbital. Polonium would lose 2 electrons to become chemically neutral. Because Polonium is radioactive it will remain unstable until gains two in Atomic Number to resemble the configuration of Lead.
Does tin resemble noble gas after the four electrons have been removed?
It will have a pseudo noble gas configuration of [Kr]4d10 after losing the four electrons
The Thomson model of the atom views it as a?
The Thomson atomic model is referred to as the blueberry muffin or plum pudding model. The name is derived from the visual interpretation that an atom is a circle with electrons arranged non-randomly in rotating rings. The electron placement is said to resemble the raisins in plum pudding or the berries in a muffin.
What is a biography on a ionic bond?
I'm not sure why there would be a biography on an ionic bond but, ionic bonds are when atoms bond by transferring electrons.
Atoms that have or electrons in their valence shells tend to gain electrons to form charged ions?
an ion.
Would fluorine's chemical properties resemble those of oxygen or those chlorine?
Fluorine's properties would more closely resemble those of chlorine than those of oxygen. This is because both F and Cl are in the same group (group 7, the halogens) and each has 7 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6, and has only 6 valence electrons.

When Na forms an ion it loses its outer electron to become Na what element does Na resemble?
I think you lost some formatting there. Na+ is isoelectronic with neon, if that's what you were trying to ask.
What is a sentence with the word resemble in it?
The suspects resemble an old style gang.The photos of the older couple resemble my parents.Two possible sentences for 'resemble' would be:Although in the same Order of animals, a koala and a wombat do not resemble each other at all.I have been told that I resemble my brother in appearance.
