The salt formed by reaction of sodium and chlorine is named sodium chloride. {Note the change of letter from "n" to "d" in forming the name of a monatomic anion from the name of the element.} This salt is a solid at any temperature at which humans can survive without special protective clothing and equipment.

It's the principal ingredient in ordinary table salt.
Sodium reacts with chlorine gas because sodium wants to donate its electron to chlorine to achieve a stable electron configuration, and chlorine wants to gain an electron to also become stable. This electron transfer results in the formation of ionic bonds between sodium and chlorine atoms, leading to the creation of sodium chloride (table salt).
Sodium chloride is formed by the reaction of sodium (Na) metal with chlorine (Cl) gas.
The reaction of bromine with sodium would be slower than the reaction of chlorine with sodium, as bromine is less reactive than chlorine. Both reactions would produce a salt (sodium bromide or sodium chloride) and release heat and gas (hydrogen gas in the case of chlorine).
The word equation for breaking sodium chloride into its elements is: Sodium chloride (s) → Sodium (s) + Chlorine (g). This represents the decomposition of sodium chloride into sodium metal and chlorine gas.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between chlorine gas and sodium is: 2Na + Cl2 -> 2NaCl Using the equation, we can see that 1 mole of chlorine gas (Cl2) reacts with 2 moles of sodium (2Na). To calculate the mass of chlorine gas needed to react with 92 grams of sodium, first convert 92 grams of sodium to moles, then use the mole ratio from the balanced equation to find the moles of chlorine gas needed. Finally, convert the moles of chlorine gas to grams.
The product of the synthesis reaction between sodium and chlorine gas is
Sodium and Chlorine. Sodium is a metal and chlorine is a halide gas.
When chlorine gas reacts with sodium metal, a chemical reaction occurs where the sodium metal loses an electron to become a sodium ion, and the chlorine gas gains an electron to become a chloride ion. The resulting compound formed is sodium chloride, which is commonly known as table salt.
At room temperature sodium is a solid and chlorine is a gas.
The products of electrolyzing brine solution (sodium chloride in water) are chlorine gas, hydrogen gas, and sodium hydroxide. Chlorine gas is produced at the anode, hydrogen gas at the cathode, and sodium hydroxide accumulates in the solution.

The balanced equation for the reaction between chlorine gas and sodium to form sodium chloride is 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl. This means that for every 2 moles of sodium (Na), one mole of chlorine gas (Cl2) reacts to form 2 moles of sodium chloride (NaCl).

Sodium Chloride, NaCl, or table salt. The reactive, valency one sodium combines with the also reactive gas chlorine, and they become an ionic compound.
