How do you know the bright yellow lines you observed when looking at sodium chloride are due to the sodium and not the chlorine in the compound?
KimJamesfb8409
By knowing or learning that the bright yellow lines observed with sodium chloride occur with all other compounds of sodium but not with any other compound of chlorine that does not contain sodium.

What is the ionic compound name for potassium nitrate?
The ionic compound for Potassium is K+ and the ionic compound for Oxide is O2-. So K+ + O2- = K20 From MILLY
Who is famous for looking at cork under a homemade microscope?

What is a dissplacement reaction?
A displacement reaction is one where a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. Example: MgCl + Na ---> NaCl2 + Mg Here, Na or Sodium is more reactive than Mg, so it displaces Mg from its compound.

How is sodium extracted from sodium chloride?
To get Sodium out of Salt or NaCl you need to boil salt in water for a period of time. Once all water is evaporated eventually the Chlorine (Cl) will turn to gas and escape the compound You will be left with a pure substance of Na or sodium. Warning: Chlorine gas is toxic at even small doses so keep out of the way. I hope his is what you were looking for=]
What is the chemical formula of boron and Chlorine?
Do you mean Boron Trichloride? BCl3 The formulae generally can be answered by looking at it's name Boron - the symbol for boron is B, Tri- means three, Chloride- Refers chlorine(Cl) Boron = B Chlorine = Cl
How do you convert a chlorine pool to a salt water pool?
Converting to a salt water pool requires the installation of a chlorine generator, and the salt for the pool water. Salt water pool are in fact chlorine pools the difference lays in the fact that chlorine is produced by running salt water through electrodes that in turn releases chlorine from the salt which is usually Sodium chloride (common salt) It may pay to also look at A new more environmentally friendly and healthier alternative By looking at Magnesium and potassium chloride salts.
Is CaCl2 ionic or covalent bound?
Of course it's an ionic compound. Calcium loses 2 electrons and forms the calcium cation Ca2+ . Also, each Chlorine atom gains 1 electron and forms the chloride anion Cl1-. This is a reaction between a metal and a non-metal where the loss and gain of electrons is essential and ions were formed, therefore it's ionic ..... hope that's what you were looking for ... ^^ !
What substance is found in the sea?
Oxygen - 85.84% Hydrogen - 10.82% Chlorine - 1.94% Sodium - 1.08% Magnesium - 0.1292% Sulfur - 0.091% Calcium - 0.04% Potassium - 0.04% Bromine - 0.0067% Carbon - 0.0028% The main ones are Oxygen. Hydrogen, Chlorine and Sodium. If you are looking for more information on this topic click on this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater
Why is low sodium salt hard to come by?
Salt is a compound of sodium; sodium chloride to be specific. So the concept of sodium-free salt is inherently oxymoronic. It's like looking for dry water.

What is the formula mass for diboron tetrachloride?
BCl3 The formulae generally can be answered by looking at it's name Boron - the symbol for boron is B, Tri- means three, Chloride- Refers chlorine(Cl)
Why are sodium and chlorine a good match for making a molecule?
Because sodium has the configuration of [Ne]3s1 it will empty the 3s orbital and create an ion with a charge of Na1+. Chlorine will do the opposite. Its configuration is [Ne]3s2,2p5 it will gain a electron to fill its s and p orbital. Because sodium doesnt want its extra s electron and chlorine is looking to gain a p electron, when the two react the electron is transferred to the chlorine. Their electronegativity is so far apart the it forms a stable Sodium Chloride molecule.
What is the molecular weight of calcium chloride?
The molecular weight of calcium chloride (CaCl2) is the sum of the molar masses of the elements involved and their proportions in the compound. Calcium's weight is 40.1 and chlorine's weight is 35.5. 40.1 + 35.5 + 35.5 = 111.1 grams/mole.
