What would 124 sodium atoms weigh?

Sodium has an atomic mass of 29.990 g/mol. This means that 124 sodium atoms have a mass of 3718.76 amu, if the isotopes follow the average. To find in grams, the following must be used: 124 sodium atoms equal 2.0598 * 10-22 moles, so 124 sodium atoms have a mass of 6.177 *10-21 grams.


Why do atoms loan electrons to other atoms?

To become stable. Without the sharing or "loaning" of electrons atoms would become very reactive. Pure sodium put into water would explode, but when sodium is combined with Chlorine, it produces Sodium Chloride (NaCl) otherwise known as common table salt.

How many atoms does sodium sulfide have?

Sodium Sulfate is Na2SO4 and so there are 7 atoms in the molecule.


What would 117 sodium atoms weigh?

1 mole of sodium weights 23g 1 mole of sodium = 6.02 x 10^23 atoms = 23g 117 atoms = ? 117 x 23 / 6.02 x 10^23 (should be a very small number)


How many atoms does sodium oxide have?

The chemical formula for sodium oxide is Na2O (with the '2' written in subscript). So in one formula unit of sodium oxide, there is one sodium and two oxygen. 1 mole of sodium oxide would have 3 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.81 x 10^24 atoms.Sodium oxide is made of sodium and oxygen atoms. The chemical formula of it is Na2O. There are 3 atoms in 1 molecule of Na2O.


How many ions are at Sodium Phosphate?

The chemical formula for Sodium Phosphate is Na3PO4.Therefor there are 8 atoms in one molecule of Sodium Phosphate; Three Sodium atoms, One Phosphorus atom, and Four Oxygen atoms. Sodium Phosphate is also known as Trisodium phosphate or TSP.


Difference between ions and atoms?

An atom is a particle that has the same number of protons as electrons. For example sodium. A sodium atom has 11 protons and 11 electrons. A sodium ion might have 11 protons and 10 electrons, so it would have a charge of +1. If a sodium ion had 10 protons and 11 electrons, it would have a charge of-1.
