This question I believe has an answer - because you're adding number without a namespace, it's assumed you don't intend it to be in the namespace of its parent. Because you don't specify a namespace, the rules of XML dictate that it has to be in the empty namespace, which the document specifies for you.

You should be able to fix it by explicitly specifying the same namespace as SubmitReq when you create it.

To remove an attribute, you can use the node.Attributes.RemoveNamedItem and pass the name of the attribute you want to remove as parameter and the attribute will be removed.
