Not very stable, that's for sure.
Sodium nucleus has 11 protons.
Sodium's crystal structure is cubic.
What have scientists learned after close study of the chemical structure of the cell and its nucleus?"
The Nucleus.
Sodium
Sodium nucleus has 11 protons.
A sodium ion (Na+) is essentially a sodium atom which had been oxidized, losing one electron and gaining a positive charge. Thus, the atomic structure of a sodium ion is an atom with 11 protons in its nucleus, but only 10 electrons in its orbitals, thus explaining its positive charge.
A nucleus having 11 protons and 12 neutrons is a sodium nucleus, no of neutrons may differ in case of isotopes.
There is no particular similarity between the electronic structure of the elements sodium and fluorine. Their electronic structures are similar only to the extent that all elements have certain features in common. The electrons form shells around the nucleus. This is true of sodium and fluorine as well as all other elements.
Sodium has 12 neutrons; all neutrons are neutral particles.
Sodium's crystal structure is cubic.
The crystalline structure of sodium is body-centered cubic.
The valence electrons are either lost to another atom or the sodium atom gains valence electrons, it really depends on if what the sodium atom is bonding with has a lot or a little of valence electrons. The structure doesn't change though, just the number of valence electrons change. The nucleus is never changed when an ion is formed.
