An element with 11 protons will have atomic number 11, or sodium. If the element has 11 neutrons, then it has an Atomic Mass of 11+11 = 22. Therefore, the isotope Sodium-22 has 11 protons, neutrons, and electrons.
In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electron. SO the atom you are talking about will have 11 electron in it. Since it has 11 protons, the element is Sodium. The number of neutrons varies in atoms. If the atom is not radioactive, the ratio of the number of neutrons to that of the protons will be less than 1.5, else the value is equal or more than 1.5 so as to make the tom radioactive.
A non-radioactive sodium atom has 11 neutrons in it.
You cannot know for sure withoutmore information. An electrically neutral sodium atom (sodium has at. no. 11) will have the same number of electrons as protons; atomic number tells you the number of protons, so this atom has 11 protons and would have 11 electrons if electrically neutral, however, if the atom is charged, it could have more or fewer electrons. Sodium atoms in stars are highly ionized and may have just a few if any any electrons.
It depends on several things, including whether or not the atom is ionized, or if it is in a covalent bond or not.
The atom is Sodium but it has 12 neutrons not 13. There is no such isotope of sodium or any other atom with this configuration.
11! ;)
That of course is not true for ionized(with a charge) atoms(which have more or less electrons than their atomic number).
none because the number of protons and electrons have to be the same.
If a neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons, it will have 11 electrons also.
If an element is neutral it must have 0 charge. Electrons carry a charge of -1 and protons carry a charge of +1. Therefore, the number of protons needed to make that element neutral is 11.
Of course 11!!
Electrons~ 11 Neutrons~11 12Protons~11Youre welcome(;___________________________ (Improved answer) No, It has 11 electrons, 11 protons and 12 neutrons.
A neutral atom with 11 electrons would, by definition, have to have 11 protons. In this case, we are talking about Sodium.
The neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons. Sodium has eleven electrons in each of its atoms, as long as the atoms are neutral. You can determine this by looking at the atomic numbers on the periodic table. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So, given the eleven electrons, you would look for the element with the atomic number eleven, which is sodium (Na).
A sodium atom has 11 protons and electrons and a chlorine atom has 17 protons and electrons. When they combine, sodium loses an electron, and chlorine gains the electron sodium lost. Now, sodium has 10 electrons and 11 protons, making it positively charged. Chlorine on the other hand, now has 18 electrons and 17 protons, making it negatively charged. Sodium has a +1 charge, and chlorine has a -1 charge. Both charges cancel out, making it have no charge.
2 electrons orbit in the outer shell. If its a neutral atom, then it will have the same number of electrons as protons. Magnesium has 12 protons and 12 electrons.
If a neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons, it will have 11 electrons also.
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.
Electrons~ 11 Neutrons~11 12Protons~11Youre welcome(;___________________________ (Improved answer) No, It has 11 electrons, 11 protons and 12 neutrons.
An atom is neutral if the numbers of protons and electrons are equal it's neutral.
A neutral sodium atom consists of 11 protons, 11 electrons, and usually 12 neutrons.
In any neutral atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons.
A neutral atom with 11 electrons would, by definition, have to have 11 protons. In this case, we are talking about Sodium.
In a neutral atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The opposite charge between protons and electrons is what allows for a neutral atom.
Atoms are neutral as long as they contain the same number of protons as electrons. If there are more electrons than protons, the atom has a negative charge. If there are less electrons than protons, the atom has a positive charge.
The neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons.
