To find the number of neutrons in sodium (Na) and magnesium (Mg), we subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass:
Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11 and an atomic mass of 23. Neutrons = 23 – 11 = 12.
Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12 and an atomic mass of 24. Neutrons = 24 – 12 = 12.
So, the correct answer is (a) 12 and 12 respectively.
