Which elements has 1 more proton than sodium?
magnesium has 1 more proton than sodium. Magnesium belongs to group-2
Is salt an electron acceptor?
Table 'Salt' is NaCl Sodium Chloride and is not a proton donor has it has no hydrogen to donate
Does sodium have ten neutrons?
Actually, the element Sodium has eleven (11) electrons. You can tell by its Atomic number. (The number at the top left side of the element's box.)The Atomic number is both the element's proton and electron number.
What is The neutron-to-proton ratio for the isotope sodium?
That depends on which isotope of sodium you are talking about. Sodium always has 11 protons. The atomic mass of sodium is about 23, meaning there are, on average, 12 neutrons, so the average neutron to proton ratio for sodium is 12:11.
What is a positively charged subatomic paricle?
The proton is a positively charged subatomic particle
Why doesn't sodium gain a proton to get a positive charge?
If sodium gained a proton it would be Mg.
Which elements has 1 more proton than sodium?
magnesium has 1 more proton than sodium. Magnesium belongs to group-2
How many proton does an atom of sodium have?
The atom of sodium has got 11 protons.
What is the mass and proton number for sodium?
Sodium has 11 protons. The atomic weight of sodium is 22,989 769 28(2).
This element has one less proton then sodium?
Neon, Ne
What do sodium ions have more of?
A sodium ion has one more proton than electrons, as the outermost electron has been lost.
If the proton is 11 and the neutron is 12 what is its element?
If there is 11 protons then that would be Na or Sodium.
What are sodium atoms?
They are the smallest bits of sodium possible that retain the chemical properties of sodium. Atoms of sodium can be broken into their component particles, but below the level of atom, all the particles of a given kind are indistinguishable. A proton from a sodium atom, for example, is indistinguishable from a proton taken from an atom of mercury. Sodium atoms consist of 11 protons and 11 electrons; its atomic number is 11. It has 12 neutrons. It is an alkali metal with a cubic crystal structure.
What is the mass number of sodium if the numbers are 11 and 12?
The proton number of Sodium is 11. The mass number is just under 23 (22.989...). This is because of the different isotopes of sodium and there scarcity.
Why does a sodium atom ion have a charg of plus 1?
it contains 1 more proton that electron.
Is sodium borohydride acidic or basic?
Basic because when sodium borohydride is placed in water, the sodium ion and the borohydride ion split, borohydride abstracts a proton (in the form of H+) from a water molecule.
Sodium hydroxide an acid or base?
A base. In solution sodium hydroxide breaks down to, Na(+) and OH(-) the OH(-) can accept a proton and thus fulfills the definition of a base
