There are 12 neutrons in a Sodium atom. To determine the number of neutrons in a specific element's atom, find the number of protons (its atomic number, which in this case is 11) and subtract it from the mass number (the number below the symbol in a Periodic Table rounded which in this case is 23).
Sodium23 has 12 neutrons.

How many neutrons are in the nucleus of this isotope of rhodium Rh-104?
There are 59 neutrons in the nucleus of rhodium's isotope Rh-104.
How many neutrons are in a lithium nucleus?
4
How many neutrons protons and electrons does one nucleus of cobalt have?
27 protons, 32 neutrons, 0 electrons.There are no electrons in the nucleus, they are in the orbitals surrounding the nucleus.
How would you describe the nucleus of sodium?
A nucleus having 11 protons and 12 neutrons is a sodium nucleus, no of neutrons may differ in case of isotopes.
What is the charge of a sodium nucleus?
Sodium has 12 neutrons; all neutrons are neutral particles.
Does a sodium atom have fewer neutrons in its nucleus than an iron atom?
Yes. Sodium has 12 neutrons whereas iron has 30 neutrons for their most stable isotpe.
What would happen if a sodium nucleus had only 5 neutrons?
12
How many baryons does Sodium have?
Sodium is not a subatomic particle, but an element in the Periodic Table. Like it's fellow elements, a Sodium atom is composed of a central clump of baryons known as the nucleus, and a surrounding cloud of small particles called electrons. The nucleus is composed of two types of baryons, protons and neutrons. In all isotopes of Sodium, there are eleven protons in the nucleus. There is only one stable isotope of Sodium, Na23 in which there are twelve neutrons. Eleven protons and twelve neutrons totals 23 baryons.
How many protrons and neutrons does silicon have in the nucleus?
How many protrons and neutrons does silicon have in the nucleus?
How many electrons in a sodium ion?
None. The electrons are not in the nucleus for any atoms. They swirl around the nucleus in space but do not enter the nucleus. If electrons are squeezed into nuclei of atoms through gravity in supermassive star collapses, they fuse with protons and become neutrons. Sodium has 11 protons and usually 12 neutrons in their nuclei but no electrons.
How many neutrons are usually found in carbon nucleus?
There are 6 neutrons in a carbon nucleus.
A neutral sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons in its nucleus How many electrons does a plus 1 sodium ion have?
If you dont know this answer , well i dont either :0
How many neutrons in sodium cloride?
Sodium has 12 neutrons. Chloride ion has 18 neutrons. In a formula unit, NaCl has 30 neutrons.
How many neutrons are emitted when a californium-249 nucleus is bombarded with carbon-12 nucleus to produce a Rf nucleus?
4 neutrons
How many neutrons are are in the nucleus of one atom of xenon?
There are 77 Neutrons in the nucleus of one atom of Xenon
