In the compound sodium fluoride NaF the sodium atom loses one electron and the fluorine atom gains one electron to form ions that have electron configurations similar to?
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.
What is electron configuration of H2SO4?
We use electron configuration for atoms or ions. You can't use it for compounds.
Write electron configurations for each of the following ions?
An electron configuration refers to the distribution of electrons in orbitals. Since there are no ions given for this question, an electron configuration cannot be provided.
A sodium atom has an electron configuration of 1s22s22p63s1 If the sodium atom becomes ionized its new electron configuration will be the same as which element?
neon!
Which ion has the same electron configuration as an atom of He?
The ions of elements nitrogen (N3-), oxygen (O2-), and fluorine (F-) will have the same electron configuration as a sodium ion (Na+), which is the same as the electron configuration of the noble gas neon.
What is the noble gas electron configuration of sodium fluoride?
In NaF, there exists Na+ and F- ions and with the electron configuration of [He]2s22p6 (for Na+) and [He]2s22p6 (for F-)
What is the noble gas electron configuration of sodium chloride?
In NaCl, there exists Na+ and Cl- ions and with the electron configuration of [He]2s22p6 (for Na+) and [Ne]3s23p6 (for Cl-)
Why do sodium and chloride ions bond together?
Sodium has 1 electron to "donate" and chlorine has space to "accept" 1 electron, so this electron transfer occurs and both have a stable octet electron configuration
When sodium and chlorine form and ionic bond both ions acquire the electron configuration of a?
Noble Gas

How do metals form ions to achieve the stable gas configuration?
metals lose electrons to form ions so as to obtain noble gas configuration. for e.g. sodium(Na) has 11 electrons i.e. 1 electron in its valent (last) shell, to attain noble gas configuration sodium loses 1 electron which may be gained by a non-metal to stabilize itself.
What is the abbreviated electron configuration of soduim?
The abbreviated electron configuration of sodium is [Ne]3s1.

Why do the elements sodium and potassium form ions with the same charge?
Because each of them can form a cation with the electron configuration of a noble gas by donating one electron to another element.
