Any element is neutral when the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons for the most common sodium isotope thats 11 of each
The neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons.
A neutral sodium atom has 11 electrons. This corresponds to the atomic number of sodium, which is 11.
its not
The neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons.
If a neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons, it will have 11 electrons also.
When the neutral atom of sodium lose an electron become the cation Na+.
A neutral atom of sodium has 11 electrons. Sodium-25 refers to the isotope of sodium with 25 total protons and neutrons, so a neutral sodium-25 atom would still have 11 electrons to balance the 11 protons in the nucleus.
11 electrons in a neutrally charged atom of sodium . It is the same number as the number of protons and the Atomic Number. However, the sodium ion (NOT Atom) has lost one electron , so there are now 11 protons(+), and 10 electrons(-). Hence 11(+)10(-)= 1(+) Hence the sodium ion is written as 'Na(+)'.
A neutral atom of sodium has 11.
A sodium ion differs from a sodium atom in that the sodium ion has a missing electron electron. It has a positive charge, as opposed to the atom, which is neutral.
There is one dot around the Na in the Lewis symbol for a neutral atom of Sodium.
All neutral sodium atoms have 11 electrons, regardless of the isotope.
