Answer:
So a sodium atom has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 meaning it has 1 electron on its outer shell. It has a neutral charge since the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.
A sodium ion is one that has lost the electron on its valence shell. The electronic configuration is 2,8 and it has a positive charge because it has more protons than electrons.
It is a nuclear reaction since a change has occurred in the nucleus. In nuclear reactions the particles in the nucleus are changed and one element is transformed into another element when particles in the nucleus gained are lost. Unlike chemical reactions which involve the electrons in an atom, nuclear reaction involve the nucleus. A nuclear reaction may be a nuclear fission or nuclear fusion; An example of nuclear reaction is where two isotopes of hydrogen (tritium and deuterium) are fused together under high pressure and temperature, to form a more stable atom of helium. This is an example of nuclear fusion reaction.
