Sodium will electrons to go from neutral to Na+1. Sodium, Na, has (number) total electrons, while the sodium ion, Na+1, has (number) total electrons.

1. Lose

2. 11

3. 10

Explanation:

When an ion is formed it either loses or gains an electron in this case since the ion is positive it means it has lose an electron, since electrons provide a negative charge. So since it goes from Na to Na+1 it has lost an electron.

The number of electrons is based off of the number of protons/ the atomic number of the element. Sodiums atomic number is 1 1 and since it lost and electron it would go down to 10.

the reaction mixture contains some ammonia, plus a lot of unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen. the mixture is cooled and compressed, causing the ammonia gas to condense into a liquid. the liquefied ammonia is separated and removed. the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen are then recycled back into the reactor .
