Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11, which means it has 11 protons. The most common isotope of sodium is sodium-23, which has a mass number of 23. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the number of protons from the mass number: 23 - 11 = 12. Therefore, sodium typically contains 12 neutrons.

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.
