In its ground state, sodium (Na) has one more electron than neon sodium, although elements are defined by the number of protons in the nucleus rather than electrons in orbit around the nucleus. in a neutral atom, there is always one electron to every proton.
Sulfur. The atomic number (big number on top of the element of the Periodic Table) refers to the number if electrons in the cloud surrounding the atom. So just take neon (8) and add 8 so we are looking for the element with the atomic number of 16 (8+8). Hope this helps and good luck in your high school chemistry class!
The element that satisfies the given option should be chlorine with 7 valence electrons and 17 protons / 17 electrons (in total).
Note: Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, neon has 8 valence electrons, sodium has
11 protons, argon has 18 protons.
Sodium
Chlorine.
Neon has 0 valence electrons and so there cannot be any element with fewer valence electrons.
Chlorine.

Chlorine.
Neon has 0 valence electrons so it is not possible to have an element with fewer valence electrons. There can, therefore, be no such element.

It's possible because sodium has 11 protons and electrons but neon bass 10 protons and electrons.
They are both noble gases. Neon is more reactive than Argon because it has a smaller radius, therefore its electrons are closer to the nucleus
The number of electrons is identical; the number of neutrons is different.
