False.
The symbol Na typically represents a neutral sodium atom with 11 protons and 11 electrons. If a sodium atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged sodium ion (Na+).
The electron-dot structure of sodium atom is 'Na-dot' or 'Na.' One dot is one valence electron.
The symbol for sodium with 11 protons and 10 electrons is Na+. The plus sign indicates that the sodium atom has lost one electron, resulting in a positive charge.
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.
When a sodium atom and a chlorine atom exchange an electron, the sodium atom loses an electron to become a positively charged sodium ion, while the chlorine atom gains an electron to become a negatively charged chloride ion. These oppositely charged ions are then attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, forming an ionic bond to create sodium chloride (table salt).
The symbol Na typically represents a neutral sodium atom with 11 protons and 11 electrons. If a sodium atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged sodium ion (Na+).
No. Na is the chemical sign for any sodium atom. The sign for ^^ is Na+1. No, I didn't make a mistake with the + or -. The + is for the charge. The electron has -1 charge, and 0-(-1)=1 (or +1). So the charge of a sodium atom with one lost electron is +1.
Na is a neutrally charged sodium atom . Na^(+) is a positively charged sodium cation. It is given the plus(+) sign because it has lost one electron ' e^(-) ' So the sodium ion contains 11 protons (11+) and 10 electrons (10-) Summing. 11 + 10 - = 1(+) hence the plus(+) sign. Latin symbol for sodium, which is 'Nadium'.
The symbol Na represents the element sodium.
The electron-dot structure of sodium atom is 'Na-dot' or 'Na.' One dot is one valence electron.
A diagram showing the sodium atom as larger than the positive sodium ion would be representative since the positive ion has lost an electron, leading to a decrease in size due to the loss of electron-electron repulsion.
Rb+
Sodium chloride is formed by an ionic bond.
The ionic symbol for chloride is Cl-. It represents the chloride ion, which is formed when a chlorine atom gains one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
The symbol for sodium with 11 protons and 10 electrons is Na+. The plus sign indicates that the sodium atom has lost one electron, resulting in a positive charge.
If a sodium atom loses an electron to become a Na+ ion, its electron configuration will be the same as neon (1s22s22p6). Both sodium and neon have stable electron configurations.
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.
