Answer:

However, if something happens to make an atom lose or gain an electron then the atom will no longer be neutral.

Explanation:

A charged atom is called an ion. When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Protons= 11

neutrons= 12

electrons = 10

Explanantion:

Look for Na on periodic table

Atomic Number = 11

Atomic Mass = 23 (round it to be an integer)

Number of protons = Atomic number = 11

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - atomic number = 23-11 =12

Number of electrons = 11 - e = ´+1 , electrons = 10
