An atom of sodium -23 na -23 had a net charge of +1 identify the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom then explain how you determined the number of each type of particle

Protons = 11

Electrons = 10

Neutrons = 12

Explanation:

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of an atom of that element. A neutral atom of an element contains equal number of protons and electrons, therefore, the atomic number is also the electron number for a neutral atom.

The mass number is the sum of proton and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom of an element.

The atomic number of sodium-23, Na-23 is 11 while the mass number is 23.

An atom of sodium that has a net charge of +1 has lost an electron. Therefore, from the above information, the number of protons, neutrons and electrons present in this atom of sodium-23 is as follows:

Protons = 11

Electrons = 11 - 1

Electrons = 10

Neutrons = 23 - 11

Neutrons = 12

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
