A chlorine atom will steal an electron from a sodium atom. The result is called an between the sodium and chlorine ions. this forms sodium chloride known as salt?
ionic bond
What 2 forms of atoms form sodium chloride?
sodium and chlorine
What element forms salts with sodium?
This element is chlorine; sodium chloride is NaCl.
When sodium interacts with chlorine sodium loses an electron while chlorine gains one this interactions forms?
Sodium chloride
What harmless substance forms from the reaction of sodium and chlorine gas?
Sodium Chloride which is table salt
What is the difference between the way carbon forms the crystal called diamond and sodium and chlorine form solid sodium chloride?
In sodium chloride the bond between chlorine and sodium is ionic; sodium chloride form large lattices. The crystalline structure is face-centered cubic.Diamond has also a similar (not identical) crystalline structure face-centered cubic. But the bonds between carbon atoms are covalent !
What two elements make up the compound salt?
Sodium and chlorine. Table salt is sodium chloride.Common table salt is composed of one sodium atom and one chlorine atom. Its chemical name, therefore, is sodium chloride, with the formula NaCl.
What is the formula of the compound that forms when sodium and chlorine combined?
NaCl, an ionically bonded compound named "sodium chloride".
Why do chemists write the formula for sodium chloride as NaCl?
Sodium chloride is NaCl because sodium (Na) forms the positive ion and chlorine (Cl) forms the negative ion and the two combine in a 1:1 ratio.
Type of bond formed between Na and Cl?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) does not react with chlorine. The bond between sodium and chlorine atoms to form sodium chloride is ionic. The sodium ion loses one electron to the chlorine atom, forming a Na+ ion and a Cl- ion. The electrostatic attraction between the two oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bond.
What common alkali element paired with chlorine provides seasoning for foods?
Sodium which forms sodium chloride or common salt
What ions are in NaCl?
A sodium ion. Cation. Na+ A chlorine ion. Anion Cl- Forms NaCl, sodium chloride.
