The diagram of sodium atom contains 2 electrons in the K shell, 8 electrons in the L shell and 1 electron in the M shell.

The name of the atom given is sodium. it has the following basic characteristics;

  • Sodium is one of the metals found in group 1 of the periodic table.
  • sodium has eleven (11) protons and eleven (11) electrons
  • sodium has 12 neutrons
  • the atomic number of sodium is 11
  • the mass number of sodium is obtained by adding the protons and the neutrons together (11 + 12 = 23)

To draw the diagram of sodium, note the following;

  • sodium atom has 3 sub-shell, K,L M
  • the number of electrons in each of the shell = (K = 2), (L = 8), (M = 1)
  • this number of electrons must correspond to the total number of electrons of sodium which is 11.

Thus, the diagram of sodium atom contains 2 electrons in the K shell, 8 electrons in the L shell and 1 electron in the M shell.

The diagram of the atom is found in the image attached.
