Sodium chloride is an ionic salt.
I would describe sodium chloride as an ionic compound made up of the elements sodium and chlorine. Sodium and chloride ions occupy alternate positions in a giant lattice structure with strong ionic bonds between them. Sodium chloride is the table salt that we are all familiar with.
What else can I help you with?
How can you describe the arrangement of sodium ions and chloride ions in a crystal of sodium ions?
The lattice of sodium chloride is face-centered cubic. The chloride ion is surrounded by six sodium cations.
Describe the solution process of sodium chloride?
In a water solution sodium chloride is dissociated in Na+ (cation) and Cl- (anion).
How can you describe the structure of sodium chloride?
Ionic. When solid: crystalic ion latice
Describe a way to remove sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride can be removed from solution by distillation. Boiling a solution of sodium chloride will cause the water to boil off and the sodium chloride to be left behind. If the water vapor is then condensed, the water obtained will be free of sodium chloride.
Does sodium chloride have luster?
Asking if something "has luster" is about the same as asking if it "has appearance". EVERYTHING has a luster, the question is "what kind?" For halite, most people would describe it as a glassy or vitreous luster.
What type of atom is in sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride has two atoms in the formula unit (NaCl): sodium and chlorine.
Why does the word molecule have no meaning when you refer to sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound made up of sodium ions and chloride ions, not molecules. A molecule is a group of atoms bonded together, but in ionic compounds, ions are held together by electrostatic forces, not covalent bonds. This is why the term "molecule" is not used to describe sodium chloride.
Which substance is a compound carbon chloride sodium chloride sodium?
Sodium chloride is a compound.
Is sodium chloride carcinogenic?
Sodium chloride is not a cause of cancer.
Describe what would happen if a positively sodium atom and a negatively charged chloringe atom came into contact?
Sodium chloride is formed.
Why is sodium chloride different from sodium chloride crystals in its electricity conductivity?
Solid sodium chloride is not an electrolyte.Sodium chloride in water solutions or molten sodium chloride are electrolytes.
What does Sodium chloride have?
Sodium chloride is formed from sodium and chlorine.
