Sodium does not have naturally occurring radioactive isotopes - as it has only 1 naturally occurring isotope, which has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, and is not radioactive. However, the 18 other known types of sodium isotopes are all radioactive, and sodium-22 (the most stable radioactive sodium isotope) has a half life of 2.6 years.
Sodium-28 is not a radioisotope. The two radioisotopes of the chemical element sodium are sodium-22 and sodium-24. They are referred to as radioactive cosmogenic isotopes.
Sodium is found with 2 isotopes, sodium-23 (near 100%) and a trace of sodium-22
Sodium chloride is a chemical compound not an isotope. But:- natural sodium contain the rare radioactive isotope 22Na and the stable isotope 23Na- natural chlorine contain the rare radioactive isotope 36Cl and the stable isotopes 35Cl and 37Cl
1. Sodium has 20 isotopes and 2 isomers. 2. Only the isotope 23Na is stable. 3. The stable isotope 23Na and the radioactive isotopes 22Na and 24Na (these isotopes exist in traces) are natural isotopes.
'Na' is the atomic notation of sodium. Hope this helps :)
Every sodium atom has 11 protons, the atomic number of sodium. The isotope with mass number 23 has (23 - 11) or 12 neutrons, because the mass number of an isotope is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the isotope.
An atom of Sodium weighs the same as 23 protons.
Sodium chloride is a compound, not an isotope.

Na -23 is the most abundant isotope, because the atomic massfor Na on the periodical table of elements is 22.99 and 22.99 isclosest to 23.
The number of protons in an atom determines what that atom is called. Therefore, sodium, or Na, always has 11 protons. The particular isotope of sodium that has 12 neutrons is called 23Na, and is the only stable isotope of sodium.
Sodium has 11 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in a sodium isotope = Mass number - 11
Sodium-23 and Sodium-22 are two common isotopes of sodium. Na-23 is the only stable isotope of Sodium. Na-22 is one of the two isomers (the other of which is Na-24). -V

Sodium-23 the only isotope occuring in nature has 12 neutrons

Sodium is element nr. 11, which means 11 protons, so 25 - 11 = 14. Note that there is no actual Sodium isotope with mass 25.
All sodium atoms have 11 protons.
