What else can I help you with?
What does the number of electrons on the outershell of an atom tell us?
The valence of the element
Why do you have groups on the periodic table of elements?
The groups on the periodic table directly correspond to the amount of valence electrons in the outer shell of the elements shown. For example in Group 8 (gases) they all have full valence electrons which equals 8 in the outershell. An element in group 1 only has 1 valence electrons like hydrogen or sodium.
What is the number of electrons in sodium?
There are a total of 11 electrons in Sodium.
How many electrons does a sodium atom have if it is not an ion?
Sodium has 11 electrons.
How many electrons does a stable sodium atom have?
Sodium has 11 electrons.
How many electrons are in an atom of sodium?
Sodium has a total of 11 electrons
How many electons does sodium have?
it has 11 electrons
Does sodium have electrons?
Yes, sodium has 11 electrons. Sodium has 11 protons which balances out the negatively charged electrons in a neutral atom.
How many electrons does the element Sodium have?
As the elemental metal sodium has 11 (eleven) electrons; the same number as the protons, and the atomic no.(Z). However, sodium will readily lose one(1) electron to form the sodium cation (Na^(+)) . When it is the sodium cation it has 11 protons, but only 10 electrons.
How many electrons are in sodium when it is neutral?
The neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons.
What is the total charge of electrons in a sodium ion?
A sodium atom has 11 electrons so the total charge of all the electrons in a sodium ion is -10.
Electrons found in the outer shell or orbital are called?
These electrons are called "outershell electrons" or "valence electrons."
