Answer:
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
Explanation:
Sodium is present in group 1.
It is alkali metal.
It has one valence electron.
The atomic number of sodium is 11.
Its atomic mass is 23 amu.
The longhand notation of electronic configuration of sodium can be written as,
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
The electronic configuration in shorthand notation( noble gas) would be written as,
Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹
Sodium loses its one valence electron to complete the octet and get stable thus form +1 cation.
It react with halogen and form salt. Such as sodium chloride.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
b) It is based on atomic properties as alkali metals requires 7 more electrons to complete their outer orbit. And they try to give those electrons to other elements to obtain noble gas configuration.
Noble gases are the gases which do not react easily with anything. They are also called as Inert gases, and belongs to group 18 of the periodic table.
Alkali metals are the substances which are found in Group I of a periodic table. Mostly the elements which are present are:
Properties of alkali metals are: Soft, shiny reactive metals. They are soft enough to cut with knife. Metals react with water and air quickly and gets tarnish, so pure metals are stored in container by dipping them in oil to prevent oxidation.
