What is a tree diagram in statistics?
a tree diagram is sorta partly like a mango diagram only with trees
What does a non right triangle look like?
It looks like the diagram below./\
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 tape diagram mean in math?
Does it Mean like if u add the ratios like 2 to 3
What does a Venn diagram look like?
It is 2 circles overlapping each other.
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 has 11 electrons...whereas sodium ion has 10 electrons. Sodium ion is more stable because it has a complete octet(noble gas configuration-Neon) which makes it inert like noble gas. Sodium atom tends to lose the extra electron which is in 3-s shell to become stable.
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.
What does a molicule of salt look like?
A molecule of salt, also known as sodium chloride (NaCl), consists of one sodium atom bonded to one chlorine atom. The atoms are arranged in a crystal lattice structure, with the sodium atom donating one electron to the chlorine atom to form a stable ionic bond. This results in a neutral molecule with a cubic shape, where the sodium and chlorine ions are arranged in a repeating pattern.
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.
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.
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?
That is correct. A noble gas (or at least all the noble gas elements heavier than helium) has an electron configuration of 8 electrons in its outer shell, and the sodium and chlorine ions in sodium chloride also have 8 electrons in their outer shell, just like a noble gas atom.
Why is an atom of sodium is neutral?
An atom of sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons and (23-11=12)neutrons. A neutron has a charge of 0. Therefore the number of nuetrons do not affect the charge of the atom. A Proton carries the charge of +1. So 11 protons mean that the atom has a charge of +11. An electron has a charge of -1, meaning that the atom would have a negative charge of -11. When you add everything up, 0 + 11 + -11 = 0 + 11 -11 = 0 + 0 = 0 Therefore a sodium atom is neutral.
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.
