Sodium is element nr. 11, which means 11 protons, so 25 - 11 = 14. Note that there is no actual Sodium isotope with mass 25.
Sodium atoms always have 11 protons. Since the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons, one can find the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons from this number. Thus, sodium 25 has 14 neutrons.
The number of protons in an atom determines what that atom is called. Therefore, sodium, or Na, always has 11 protons. The particular isotope of sodium that has 12 neutrons is called 23Na, and is the only stable isotope of sodium.
The symbol for a sodium isotope with 12 neutrons would be "Na-23". This notation indicates the element symbol "Na" for sodium and the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus (12 neutrons + 11 protons = atomic mass number 23).
For sure the sodium atomic nucleus contains 11 protons. The natural isotope of sodium(23) also contains 12 neutrons, but other isotopes are possible with less or more of them in the nucleus. Still 11 protons, always!
The atomic number is determined by the number of Protons. So in this case it would be 11 (Sodium). The mass number is the total of protons and neutrons, so in this case 23. So this isotope of sodium would be 23Na.
Sodium has 11 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in a sodium isotope = Mass number - 11
Every sodium atom has 11 protons, the atomic number of sodium. The isotope with mass number 23 has (23 - 11) or 12 neutrons, because the mass number of an isotope is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the isotope.
Every sodium atom has 11 protons, the atomic number of sodium. The isotope with mass number 23 has (23 - 11) or 12 neutrons, because the mass number of an isotope is defined as the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the isotope.
Sodium atoms always have 11 protons. Since the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons, one can find the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons from this number. Thus, sodium 25 has 14 neutrons.
The isotope notation for sodium with 11 protons and 12 neutrons would be Sodium-23, where the number 23 represents the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
elecrons - 11 neutrons - 12 protons - 11
sodium-11 has 5 proton,5 electron and 6 neutron. hahaha...miss-a--danq2,cia2,stephai,trinang!

Sodium chloride is a chemical compound not an isotope. But:- natural sodium contain the rare radioactive isotope 22Na and the stable isotope 23Na- natural chlorine contain the rare radioactive isotope 36Cl and the stable isotopes 35Cl and 37Cl
Isotope 24Na (or Na-24) has 11 protons and 13 neutrons, its mass number is 24Isotope 23Na is the stable form of Na with 11 protons, 12 neutrons and with mass number 23.
The isotope notation for sodium with 11 protons and 12 neutrons would be 23/11 Na.
