Which is larger a sodium atom or sodium ion with a plus 1 charge?

The sodium atom is much bigger than a sodium cation with a plus 1 charge, because the "lost" electron of the ion had a higher principal quantum number than any remaining electron in the ion and therefore was distributed through a larger volume of space than any of the remaining electrons.

Is Na plus a ion?

The Na+ ion is a sodium atom that has lost an electron and therefore has a single positive charge. Because a neutral sodium atom has one valence electron, it will usually form such an ion when it enters a chemical compound.

The symbol Na plus represents a sodium atom that has lost an electron?

Not quite. The symbol Na+ represents a sodium ion that has lost one electron, giving it a net positive charge. It no longer behaves like a neutral sodium atom and is more reactive in forming compounds.


Ions formed from Na plus and Cl- are?

Sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-) are formed when a sodium atom donates an electron to a chlorine atom. This transfer of electrons creates the stable ionic compounds sodium chloride (NaCl).
