The atomic number of sodium is 11 and its
mass number is 23. It has​

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass). Sodium has a mass number of 23amu. Since sodium has 11 protons, the number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.

☑️✨The atomic number and mass number of sodium are 11 and 23 respectively.

This suggests that number of proton in sodium =11 and number of nucleons i.e. proton and neutrons in sodium =23. Thus, number of neutrons =12 and also Since no. of protons = no. of electrons =11

So, they are similar.
