Answer:

11 electrons total and 23amu

Explanation:

This tells us that sodium has 11 protons and because it is neutral it has 11 electrons. The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass). Sodium has a mass number of 23amu.

Explanation:

Formula to calculate hybridization is as follows.

Hybridization = $\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]$

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

So, hybridization of $BeCl_{2}$ is as follows.

Hybridization = $\frac{1}{2}[V + N - C + A]$

= $\frac{1}{2}[2 + 2]$

= 2

Hybridization of $BeCl_{2}$ is sp. Therefore, $BeCl_{2}$ is a linear molecule. There will be only two electron groups through which Be is attached.

Similarly, hybridization of $XeF_{2}$ is calculated as follows.

Hybridization = $\frac{1}{2}[V + N - C + A]$

= $\frac{1}{2}[8 + 2]$

= 5

Therefore, hybridization of $XeF_{2}$ is $sp^{3}d. Therefore, [tex]XeF_{2}$ is also a linear molecule. Though there are three lone pair of electrons present on a xenon atom and it is further attached with fluorine atoms through two electron pairs. Hence, there are in total five electron groups.
