Sodium does not have naturally occurring radioactive isotopes - as it has only 1 naturally occurring isotope, which has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, and is not radioactive. However, the 18 other known types of sodium isotopes are all radioactive, and sodium-22 (the most stable radioactive sodium isotope) has a half life of 2.6 years.
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
1. Sodium has 20 isotopes and 2 isomers. 2. Only the isotope 23Na is stable. 3. The stable isotope 23Na and the radioactive isotopes 22Na and 24Na (these isotopes exist in traces) are natural isotopes.
'Na' is the atomic notation of sodium. Hope this helps :)
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.
An atom of Sodium weighs the same as 23 protons.

All atoms of sodium contain 11 protons, since 11 is the atomic number of sodium.
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.
Na -23 is the most abundant isotope, because the atomic massfor Na on the periodical table of elements is 22.99 and 22.99 isclosest to 23.

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
There are several isotopes of Sodium, each with different half lives. The longest lived, Sodium-22, has a half-life of 2.6027 years.If you are interested in a different isotope, ask the question again and be specific about the isotope in the question.
sodium-11 has 5 proton,5 electron and 6 neutron. hahaha...miss-a--danq2,cia2,stephai,trinang!
Sodium-23 the only isotope occuring in nature has 12 neutrons
Sodium-23 and Sodium-22 are two common isotopes of sodium. Na-23 is the only stable isotope of Sodium. Na-22 is one of the two isomers (the other of which is Na-24). -V
elecrons - 11 neutrons - 12 protons - 11
