'{{more footnotes|date=August 2017}} {{infobox sodium isotopes}} There are 21 recognized isotopes of [[sodium]] (₁₁Na), ranging from {{chem|18|Na}} to {{chem|39|Na}}<ref name=riken51>{{cite report |last=Ahn |first=D.S. |display-authors=etal |title=New isotope of ³⁹Na and the neutron dripline of neon isotopes using a 345 MeV/nucleon ⁴⁸Ca beam |series=RIKEN Accelerator Progress Reports |volume=51 |pages=82 |date=2018 |url=https://www.nishina.riken.jp/researcher/APR/APR051/pdf/82.pdf}}</ref> and two [[nuclear isomer|isomer]]s ({{chem|22m|Na}} and {{chem|24m|Na}}). {{chem|23|Na}} is the only stable (and the only primordial) isotope. It is considered a monoisotopic element and it has a [[standard atomic weight]] of {{val|22.98976928|(2)}}. Sodium has two [[radioactive]] [[Cosmogenic nuclide|cosmogenic]] isotopes ({{chem|22|Na}}, [[half-life]] = 2.605 years; and {{chem|link=Sodium-24|24|Na}}, half-life ≈ 15 hours). With the exception of those two, all other isotopes have [[half-life|half-lives]] under a minute, most under a second. The shortest-lived is {{chem|18|Na}}, with a half-life of {{val|1.3|(4)|e=-21}} seconds. Acute neutron radiation exposure (e.g., from a nuclear [[criticality accident]]) converts some of the stable {{chem|23|Na}} in human blood plasma to {{chem|24|Na}}. By measuring the concentration of this isotope, the neutron radiation dosage to the victim can be computed. {{chem|22|Na}} is a [[positron]]-emitting isotope with a remarkably long half-life. It is used to create test-objects and point-sources for [[positron emission tomography]]. == List of isotopes == {{Isotopes table |symbol=Na |refs=NUBASE2016, AME2016 II<!-- was updated as of

My name is Jeff I live on 1234 not telling you road. 😂😂😂 lol ==Sodium-24== Sodium-24 is one of the most important isotopes. It is [[radioactive]] and created from common sodium-23 by [[neutron]] bombardment. With a 15-hour half life, {{chem|24|Na}} decays to {{chem|link=Isotopes of magnesium|24|Mg}} by emission of an [[electron]] and two [[gamma ray]]s. Exposure of the human body to intense neutron flux creates {{chem|24|Na}} in [[blood plasma]]. Measurements of its quantity are used to determine the absorbed radiation dose of the patient. This is used to determine the level of medical treatment required. When the [[NaK|sodium-potassium]] alloy is used as a coolant in nuclear reactors, {{chem|24|Na}} is created, which makes the coolant radioactive. When the {{chem|24|Na}} decays, it causes a buildup of magnesium in the coolant. Since the half life is short, the {{chem|24|Na}} portion of the coolant ceases to be radioactive within a few days after removal from the reactor. ==Sodium-22== Sodium-22 is being investigated as an efficient generator of “cold [[positrons]]” ([[antimatter]]) to produce [[muons]] for catalyzing [[Muon-catalyzed fusion|fusion of deuterium]]. == References == {{reflist}} * Isotope masses from: **{{NNDC}} * Isotopic compositions and standard atomic masses from: **{{CAWIA 2003}} **{{CIAAW 2005}} * Half-life, spin, and isomer data selected from the following sources. **{{NUBASE 2003}} **{{NNDC}} **{{CRC85|chapter=11}} * Sodium-22 as fusion initiator: **{{cite web |author=Brian Wang |year= |title=Positron Dynamics near term work to proving out antimatter catalyzed deuterium fusion propulsion with over 100,000 ISP |url=http://www.nextbigfuture.com/2016/10/positron-dynamics-near-term-work-to.html |publisher=NextBig Future |accessdate=October 25, 2016}} ==External links== *[https://web.archive.org/web/20070712011829/http://ie.lbl.gov/education/parent/Na_iso.htm Sodium isotopes data from ''The Berkeley Laboratory Isotopes Project's''] {{Navbox element isotopes}} [[Category:Sodium]] [[Category:Isotopes of sodium| ]] [[Category:Lists of isotopes by element|Sodium]]'
