Unabbreviated electron configuration of sodium

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

Explanation:

Abbreviated and unabbreviated electronic configuration:

The abbreviated electronic configuration uses the noble gas configuration i.e complete electronic shells. For example, the atomic number of neon is ten and sodium is eleven. The abbreviated electronic configuration of sodium is written by using the neon abbreviation in following way:

The electronic configuration of neon is given below:

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

The abbreviated electronic configuration of sodium:

Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹

While the unabbreviated electronic configuration is written without using noble gas electronic configuration.

Unabbreviated electronic configuration of sodium:

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

explanation: it gains negative electrons, therefore becoming negatively charged. as charge cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transferred, this leaves the wool positive. now that they have opposite charges, the two items attract.
