What is the metallic element is in ordinary table salt?
Table salt is NaCl and thus the metallic element is sodium (Na). The Cl, chlorine, is non-metallic.
What is the difference between sodium chloride and its component?
Sodium chloride is compound, NaCl; sodium (Na) is a metallic chemical element and chlorine (Cl) is a gas.
Which metallic element is found in table salt?
Table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) contain sodium and chlorine. Sodium is the metal.
What element combined with chloride ion would form an ionic compound?
Chloride ions would form elements with ions of metallic elements. For example, with sodium ions, chloride ions form sodium chloride.
What is the valency of an element sodium chloride?
the valency of element sodium chloride is 1
Is an sodium chloride an element?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a compound, not a chemical element.
Is sodium chloride a copper or element or mixture?
Sodium chloride is a salt and copper is an element.
Is solid sodium chloride an element?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a compound, not a chemical element.
Is NACL metallic?
Sodium chloride is not a metal.
Is the compound sodium chloride the same as the element chloride sodium or the element chlorine?
No. Sodium chloride is quite different from either of its component elements.
Is sodium chloride a compound or element?
Sodium chloride is a compound.
Which element is a metallic element in ordinary table salt?
The formula for table salt is NaCl. This means that in this ionic compound, sodium ions and chlorine ions are bonded together in a one to one ratio. Sodium is the metallic element in this compound, whereas chloride is the nonmetal in the compound. Of course, sodium is only metallic in its elemental (not ionic) form.
