Yes, it is correct - NaCl is a formula unit of sodium chloride; ionic compounds hasn't a true chemical formula.
The formula unit -NaCl - (not a molecule) contain two atoms.
Today NaCl is considered the formula unit of sodium chloride, not the true chemical formula of the molecule; NaCl form very complex lattices, as other ionic salts.
Two atoms in the formula unit (not molecule): Na and Cl.
In the formula unit (NaCl) are 28 protons.
The molecular mass of NaCl (as formula unit) is 58,44 g.
The term molecule is not adequate for sodium chloride; the recommended term is formula unit.
The formula unit of sodium chloride (NaCl) contain 28 protons.
A formula unit is a unit that is made up of a metal and a nonmetal. (ex: NaCl) but i think it can also be really big (ex: NaHCO3) A molecule is molecular - only molecular (ex: H2O)
The term molecule is not adequate for sodium chloride because NaCl form large lattices. More exact is formula unit - NaCl.
The term molecule is not adequate for an ionic compound; correct is formula unit.60 g NaCl contain the equivalent of 1,026 formula units.
Wate is molecular , H2O. NaCl is giant ionic laattice and is not molecular when normally encountered. In terms of mass the formula unit of NaCl is greater than than the molecular mass of water.
The answer is 4,328.1023formula units (not molecules).
