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! :)

What is sodium number of protons electrons and neutrons?

Because atoms can be isotopes or ions, protons are the only stable identifier for an element (Sodium can have more or less than normal number of electrons or neutrons and still be sodium). Sodium has 11 protons.


How many protons electrons and neutrons does sodium-23 have?

sodium's atomic number is 11 and since protons and electrons are the same number as the atomic number, there are 11 protons and 11 electrons, to get the neutrons you take the isotope of sodium you are given, in this case 23 and subtact the number of protons, so 23-11=12. Therefore there are 12 electrons.

How many protons electrons and neutrons does sodium contain?

23Na is the stable isotope of sodium. In its neutral state it has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, hence 11 electrons. Its commonest oxidation state is +1 (meaning that it 'donates' a single electron). Hence, a sodium ion has 10 electrons. Please see the links.
