It is essential for accurate results that the correct volume of blood is sampled to achieve a correct concentration (and dilution, if liquid heparin is used), and that blood and anticoagulant are well mixed immediately after sampling.
Hey there!
Na is sodium, which has 11 protons.
The more realistic amount of neutrons for this atom to have is 12. 23 would be the sum of protons and electrons.
The atom has a charge of 1+, so there is one less electron than protons, so
11 - 1 = 10 electrons.
Your answer is d. it has 11 protons, 10 electrons, and 12 neutrons.
Hope this helps!
