What is a tree diagram in statistics?
a tree diagram is sorta partly like a mango diagram only with trees
What venn diagram with six regions looks like 7 regions?
There is no such Venn diagram. If six regions look like 7 you are clearly muddling something up.
What does a non right triangle look like?
It looks like the diagram below./\
What does tape diagram mean in math?
Does it Mean like if u add the ratios like 2 to 3
What is pulvinus explain with diagram?
A cushion like swelling at the base of the leaf or leaflet.
A Sodium atom has 1 electron in its outer shell which can hold 8 electrons. To achieve stability the sodium atom does what?
The sodium atom will lose its outer electron to achieve stability. By losing this electron, it will have a full outer shell, like a noble gas, and become a positively charged sodium ion.
How many atoms are represented by the symbol Na?
The symbol Na represents the element sodium.
What are the difference in stability between sodium ion and sodium atom?
Sodium atom is more stable than sodium ion because the atom has a full outer electron shell (valence shell) with 8 electrons, following the octet rule. In contrast, sodium ion has a positive charge and is less stable due to the loss of one electron from its outer shell.
How many must a neutral sodium atom lose in order to have electron configuration like neon?
A neutral sodium atom must lose one electron to have the electron configuration of neon, which has a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell. Sodium typically forms a +1 cation by losing this one electron to achieve a stable configuration like neon.
What does an atom of sodium look like?
An atom of sodium consists of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by one electron cloud. The nucleus contains 11 protons and usually 12 neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of approximately 23. The electron cloud contains one electron in the outer shell.
How are valence electrons imoprtant?
Valence electrons can determine the reactivity of the atom. An atom with a full shell of valence electrons, like neon, will be less reactive than an atom with only one electron in its valence shell, like sodium.
The symbol Na plus represents a sodium atom that has lost an electron?
Not quite. The symbol Na+ represents a sodium ion that has lost one electron, giving it a net positive charge. It no longer behaves like a neutral sodium atom and is more reactive in forming compounds.
When a sodium atom reacts with a chlorine atom to form a compound the electron configurations of the ions forming the compound are the same as those of noble gas atoms?
Yes, when a sodium atom reacts with a chlorine atom to form a compound (sodium chloride), the sodium atom loses an electron to form a sodium ion with the same electron configuration as neon, while the chlorine atom gains an electron to form a chloride ion with the same electron configuration as argon. This stable electron configuration is achieved by attaining a full outer shell of electrons, similar to noble gas atoms.
Why is an atom of sodium is neutral?
An atom of sodium is neutral because it has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge. In a neutral atom, these two charges balance each other out, resulting in an overall neutral charge.
In ionic bonding an atom with 1 valence e- like sodium will to form an ionic bond?
lose 1e
What atom will behave like Na?
All of the elements in group 1 on the periodic table will behave similarly to sodium.
Where can you find a picture of the Bohr Rutherford diagram for A carbon atom?
You can find a picture of a Bohr Rutherford diagram for a carbon atom by doing an image search on a search engine like Google or by checking science textbooks or educational websites that cover atomic structure.
