yes its true because its an element and if you want to make an element you will have to have one sort/type of atoms together (neon has 10 atoms to make an element) .

What Elements contain only one type of atom?

Elements that contain only one type of atom are called pure elements or monatomic elements. For example, helium (He), neon (Ne), and oxygen (O) are pure elements because they consist of only one type of atom in their chemical structure.


What is a substance that is only made up of just one atom?

An example of a substance made up of just one atom is an element like helium or neon. These elements exist as single atoms and do not chemically bond with other atoms.


What does a neon atom and a sodium ion have in common?

Both a neon atom and a sodium ion have 10 electrons. Neon is a noble gas with a full valence shell, while a sodium ion has lost one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.


Why does an atom of sodium have more mass than an atom of neon?

Sodium is atomic number 11, while neon is atomic number 10. We would already expect sodium to be heavier, but the most common stable isotope of sodium has 12 neutrons, and the most common stable isotope of neon has only 10. Since the atomic weight can be approximated by the sum of neutrons and protons (and the number of protons is the atomic number), we can guess that sodium's atomic mass is 23 and neon's is 20.


How many must a neutral sodium atom lose in order to have electron configuration like neon?

A neutral sodium atom must lose one electron to have the electron configuration of neon, which has a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell. Sodium typically forms a +1 cation by losing this one electron to achieve a stable configuration like neon.

Does cooper only contain one sort of atom?

if you are talking about 'copper'(which I think you are) than yes, it does. Every element contains only one type of atom in it, that's actually the definition of an atom.

Does copper only contain one sort of atom?

Copper is an element. An element consists of one type of atom. If there is more than one type of atom it can be a mixture of elements, or it could be a compound or alloy, but not an element.

How many atoms does a monatomic have?

A monatomic molecule contains only one atom. It is a single atom that is chemically stable. Examples include noble gases like helium and neon.


How are valence electrons imoprtant?

Valence electrons can determine the reactivity of the atom. An atom with a full shell of valence electrons, like neon, will be less reactive than an atom with only one electron in its valence shell, like sodium.


What is the ion that formed from neon?

Neon typically forms the neon ion, Ne+. This ion is produced by removing one electron from a neutral neon atom, leaving it with a positive charge.


Will one helium atom and one neon atom join to form a molecule?

The compound HeNe exist but it is difficult to obtain this molecule and is very unstable.


How many neutrons are in one neon atom?
