The formula unit of sodium chloride (NaCl) contain 60,33 % chlorine.
NaCl
There is no chlorine present in NaCl (sodium chloride). Sodium chloride is made up of sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-), but the element chlorine itself is not present in its elemental form in NaCl.
No, they are not the same thing. Elemental sodium (Na) is a soft silvery metal that violently burns up when water touches it. Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is the scientific name for table salt - the same stuff you put on food.
Sodium chloride (NaCl) forms during the reaction between elemental sodium (Na) and elemental chlorine (Cl). This reaction is highly exothermic and releases a significant amount of energy. Sodium chloride is a common table salt used in cooking and food preservation.
You have answered the question for yourself. The components of sodium chloride are 'sodium' and 'chlorine' . However, both are ions NOT elemental atoms. The ions being Sodium cation (Na^(+)) & Chloride anion (Cl(_)). There are NO other elements present in sodium chloride.
