the abbreviated electron configuration of sodium is
(Ne) 3s1
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
[Ar] 3s1
[Ne] 3s1

If a sodium atom loses an electron to become a Na+ ion, its electron configuration will be the same as neon (1s22s22p6). Both sodium and neon have stable electron configurations.
Their electron configuration =)
A neutral sodium must lose one electron in order for the resulting sodium ion to have the same electron configuration as an atom of the element neon.
The valence electron configuration of a sodium atom is 3s1, meaning it has one electron in the 3s orbital in the outermost shell. Sodium has one electron in its outermost shell, making it highly reactive.
neon only because sodium loses an electron an its outer shell becomes empty making its configuration the same as neon and fluorine gains an electron making its configuration the same as neon as well.

the condensed electron configuration for Lu is [Xe] 6s^2 4f^14 5d^1
A neutral sodium must lose one electron in order for the resulting sodium ion to have the same electron configuration as an atom of the element neon.
An iron atom is a different element than a sodium atom because it has a different ground state electron configuration. In fact, any atom that differs from any other atom in ground state electron configuration is a different element.
Sr, Strontium (atomic number 38)

The full electron configuration for sulfur atom is 1s2.2s2.2p6.3s2.3p4.
Every halogen has the capacity to accept one electron from a sodium atom and to thereby achieve a noble gas electron configuration of eight valance electrons. The halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
They all have full outer shells. in other words 8 electrons in the outer shell
