What bonds does calcium and chlorine have in common with hydrogen and nitrogen?
They do not have any bonds in common. Calcium and chlorine atoms form an ionic bond and hydrogen and nitrogen form a polar covalent bond.
A chlorine atom reacts with a sodium atom to form sodium chloride, NaCl. A chlorine atom can also react with another chlorine atom to form a chlorine molecule, Cl2. Which statement BEST explains the behavior of chlorine in these two reactions?
A chlorine atom can form ionic bonds by accepting an electron and covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
What happens to sodiums valence electron when sodium bonds with chlorine to form table salt?
The electron is transferred to chlorine.
What type of bond holds together the elements sodium and chlorine?
Ionic bonds
Does oxygen and chlorine form an ionic bond?
No, Oxygen forms covalent bonds
What bonds does calcium and chlorine have in common with hydrogen and nitrogen?
They do not have any bonds in common. Calcium and chlorine atoms form an ionic bond and hydrogen and nitrogen form a polar covalent bond.
How many bonds does chlorine like to form?
Chlorine forms just one bond.
How many chemical bonds can chlorine form?
1000000
How many sigma and pi bond are there in chlorine?
The diatomic chlorine molecule has 1 sigma and 0 pi bonds.
How many covalent bonds in Cl?
There is one covalent bond between two chlorine atoms in a molecule of chlorine.
When chlorine bonds with chlorine is it an ionic or covalent bond?
Covalent.
How many covalent bonds can chloride make?
The most common number is one, chlorine achieves the octet, as in the HCl molecule. However there are chlorine oxides and chlorine fluoride compounds where more than one covalent bond id formed. One example is chlorine trioxide with 6, another is chorine pentafluoride with 5.
A chlorine atom reacts with a sodium atom to form sodium chloride, NaCl. A chlorine atom can also react with another chlorine atom to form a chlorine molecule, Cl2. Which statement BEST explains the behavior of chlorine in these two reactions?
A chlorine atom can form ionic bonds by accepting an electron and covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
Is sodium and chlorine pair form ionic bond?
Yes. It is because Sodium is a metal and Chlorine is a nonmetal and all metal-nonmetal bonds are ionic. This compound is common table salt.
What kinds of bonds occurs when an atom of sodium joins an atom of chlorine to form sodium chlorine?
Sodium chloride has ionic bonds.
How is chlorine poisonous?
chlorine is a powerful bonding chemical (Fluorine is the most powerful). Chlorine gas is green and gets in to your lungs and bonds it all up and stops oxygen and causes your lungs to melt. Unpleasant. Common during WWII.
What bonds with boron?
boron bonds with fluorine, chlorine, hydrogen, bromine, and oxygen.
