Answer:
Isotopes have same atomic numbers, no. of protons and no. of electrons. Only their no. of neutrons and atomic mass are changed.
<u>Na - 24:</u>
Atomic Mass = 24
Atomic No. = 11
Hence,
No. of protons in Na-24 = 11
No. of neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number
No. of neutrons = 24 - 11
No. of neutrons = 13
Atomic Number = 11

Physicist Ernest Rutherford<span> established the nuclear theory of the atom with his </span>gold-foil experiment<span>. When he shot a beam of alpha particles at a sheet of </span>gold foil<span>, a few of the particles were deflected. He concluded that a tiny, dense nucleus was causing the deflections.</span>
We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.
Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.
If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.
With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.
With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
