How many electrons are in a sodium cation Na plus?
The number of electrons is 10.
How many electrons does a stable sodium atom have?
A stable sodium atom has 11 electrons.
How many number of electrons to fill the outer shell of carbon?
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
How do you tell how many electrons are in the outer layer of an element?
The outermost principal shell -or regions around the nucleus where electrons move- contains the valence electrons. The number of valance electrons can be calculated for the columns with A's above them. The number given to the column represents the number of valence electrons (written before and next to the A). For instance, Lithium (Li) and Sodium (Na) have one valence electron because they are in column one. During chemical bonding, these two elements and others in their column have the same configuration of outer electrons; thus, they tend to lose their single electron in order to gain a full outer shell. Similarly, oxygen (O) and sulfur (S) have 6 valence electrons, so they tend to gain electrons to make their full outer shell.
How does an atom of sodium has a larger mass than a atom of neon. how is this possible when neon has so many more valence electrons?
sodium has more protons and neutrons. electrons have practically no mass, valence electrons are just outer orbital electrons. sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Mass is 23. neon has 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 10 neutrons. Mass is just 20. The neon atom has 10 protons and 10 neutrons for a mass number of 20. The sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons for a mass number of 23. The number of valence electrons has no bearing on mass number or atomic weight.
How many elements contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium?
The number of elements that contain the same type of outer electrons as sodium is 11.
How many outer ring electrons does a sodium atom have?
Sodium has one electron in its outer ring.
How many electrons does sodium have in it's outer orbit?
Sodium has 1 electon in it's outer orbit, 8 in the second and 2 in the first.
How many electrons are in a neutral sodium's outer energy level?
One electron in 3s orbital of sodium
How many Chlorine electrons are in the outer shell of a sodium atom?
None - the electron goes from sodium TO the chlorine.
How many electrons does sodium have in its outer most shell?
Sodium is in the third group in the periodic table. It meens that sodium has three shell. First shell - 2 electrons, second shell - 8 electrons, third shell (outer energy level) - 1 electron.
How many electrons are in sodium?
Sodium has an Atomic Number of 11 and an Mass Number of 23.This means an atom of Sodium has 11 Protons and therefore 11 electrons.
How many electrons does Sodium need to fill it's outer energy level?
It needs to lose one electron so that it can have 8 electrons in its outer orbital
How many electrons are in an atom of elemental sodium equal to?
The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the atomic number; sodium has 11 electrons. The number of protons is the same.
How many electrons will the sodium atom need to lose to get a full outer shell?
Just one.
How many outer electrons does sodium have?
1 electron which makes it belongs to group 1
How many number of electrons in the outer shell of xenon?
It has 8 electrons. "Your Welcome"
