Chloride is an ion that can form ionic bonds.
Elemental chlorine is covalently bonded.
Sodium chloride is ionic

Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
An ionic bond
No, but the bond in sodium chloride is covalent.
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Iron II chloride is an ionic compound where the bond between iron and chloride ions is ionic. Iron(II) cation (Fe2+) and chloride anion (Cl-) have opposite charges, which result in an electrostatic attraction known as an ionic bond.
Sodium metal ionises to form the sodium cation Na(s) = Na^(+) + e^(-) Chlorine has electron affinity , attracts an electron to form the chloride anion. Cl + e^(-) = Cl^(-) The two ions are attracted to each other, because they have opposite (+/-) charges, just like the N & S poles of a magnet. It is correctly called 'electrostatic attraction'. Hence Na^(+) + Cl^(-) = NaCl(s)
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Sodium chloride has ionic bonds; sodium chloride form a giant lattice.
