The ion charge of this element, Na would be + 1, as a single valence electron has been removed and transferred to another atom, resulting in an atom with a greater number of protons than electrons, making it positively charged.

Answer:

Sodium (Na) will become Na+

Explanation:

Every atom is neutral in its natural form, meaning they have the same number of protons and electrons. When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes a cation (positive ion) with a charge of +1. If the atom looses two electrons the new charge of the resulting ion will be +2. On the other hand if an atom gains one electron the resultiong anion (negative ion) will have a charge of -1. Loosing two electrons will form an ion with charge -2.
