Neon has 10 protons in its nucleus, but it naturally has the same number of electrons surrounding it, making it neutral.

It is possible to ionize neon, giving it 2 extra electrons and a charge of -2, but it won't retain ionization for any appreciable length of time

How many protons and neutrons and electrons does the ion Na 1?

The ion Na+ has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 10 electrons. This is because sodium has an atomic number of 11, meaning it naturally has 11 protons and 11 electrons, but as an ion with a +1 charge, it has lost 1 electron.


How does an atom of sodium has a larger mass than a atom of neon. how is this possible when neon has so many more valence electrons?

sodium has more protons and neutrons. electrons have practically no mass, valence electrons are just outer orbital electrons. sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Mass is 23. neon has 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 10 neutrons. Mass is just 20. The neon atom has 10 protons and 10 neutrons for a mass number of 20. The sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons for a mass number of 23. The number of valence electrons has no bearing on mass number or atomic weight.


A sodium ion has 11 protons and 10 electrons what is its charge?

A sodium ion with 11 protons and 10 electrons has a net charge of +1 because the number of protons (positive charge) is greater than the number of electrons (negative charge) by 1.

How many protons neutrons and electrons does sodium ion contain?

The simplest way to figure this out is as following: the atomic number of sodium is 11, which gives you the number of protons. The number of electrons = the number of protons. The number of neutrons is the atomic weight (22.98 in this case) rounded minus the number of protons. Therefore sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Hope this helps! :)
