Why does an atom of 23NA have 23 electrons

Chemistry
1 answer:
Julli [10]3 years ago
7 0
It is actually something standardized more so than theoretical,  however in terms of atoms in general the electrons are based on the amount of  electronic shells that an atom has and the amount of electrons that atom can accommodate.  In the case of sodium, it has three shells with 2 electrons on the first shell which is the maximum, 8 on the second shell which is also the max and 1 on their final shell
So simply put an ATOM of Sodium (Na) has 23 electrons because it has 23 protons which is a fact

Do the number of atoms change in a chemical reaction?<br> I will give brainliest
padilas [110]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The reason comes the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>.

In an ordinary chemical reaction, <em>you cannot create or destroy atoms</em>.

So, you must have as many atoms at the beginning of a reaction (in the reactants) as at the end (in the products)

We use this principle to balance chemical equations.

For example, the equation for the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen is

2H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2H₂O

There are four atoms of H and two of O both before and after the reaction.
