Oxygen and Sulfur are in the same group.
Sulfur is the next element in the group, and it reacts with hydrogen gas (H2) in a manner similar to oxygen.
First, the symbol for sodium oxide is Na₂O
Each Na (sodium) has a charge of 1+, and each O has a charge of 2- :
Na₂¹⁺O²⁻
There are two Na's, however, and each one is 1+, however, so the Na₂ has a total charge of 2+. Because of this, the 2+ from the 2 Na's and the 2- from the O cancel each other out to make 0.

Explanation:
The electron configuration of an atom in an element determines the property of the atom. The core electrons are found inside the atom while the valence electrons are found on the outermost shell of the atom.
For cobalt, the outermost shell electron configuration is; [Ar] 3d7 4s2. The 3d7 and 4s2 are found in the valence shell of cobalt.
For arsenic, the electronic configuration is [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p³. The valence electrons are 4s2, 4p3. The 3d electrons are found inside the arsenic atom.
A single replacement reaction can be represented by the equation AB + C = AC + B
