Sodium and chlorine can bond together Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron What is chlorine's charge after accepting the electron?
-1
Sodium and chlorine can bond together. Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron. What is chlorine's charge after accepting the electron?
-1
What is chlorines reactivity?
Chlorine is very reactive, it will corrode many things (like hot aluminum, iron or sodium) in contact
When sodium and chlorine react the outermost electron of the sodium atom is?
Valence electron - Sodium loses one electron to form a sodium ion (valence of 1).
How many Chlorine electrons are in the outer shell of a sodium atom?
None - the electron goes from sodium TO the chlorine.

A chlorine atom reacts with a sodium atom to form sodium chloride, NaCl. A chlorine atom can also react with another chlorine atom to form a chlorine molecule, Cl2. Which statement BEST explains the behavior of chlorine in these two reactions?
A chlorine atom can form ionic bonds by accepting an electron and covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
Which element will have a noble gas configuration if it forms an ionic bond by accepting one electron from a sodium atom?
Chlorine (Cl)
How are sodium and chlorine ions different from salt molecules?
A sodium ion is a sodium atom missing one electron. A chlorine ion is a chlorine atom with an extra electron. A salt molecule is a sodium ion stuck to a chlorine ion.
How many electron are transferred in the ionic bond between sodium and chlorine NaCl?
Only one, from sodium to chlorine.
Why does the transfer of an electron occur between a sodium atom and a chlorine atom?
Chlorine is extremely electronegative and will steal electrons from the valence shell of sodium. When chlorine steals the electron, both sodium and chlorine have full valence shells.
Does chlorine gains an electron from sodium?
in Sodium Chloride yes
What is chlorines reactivity?
Chlorine is very reactive, it will corrode many things (like hot aluminum, iron or sodium) in contact
What is the sodium that reacts with chlorine by giving its outermost electron to chlorine?
the sodium (Na) atom gives its single outermose electron to chlorine to form two ions of different charge.
When sodium and chlorine react the outermost electron of the sodium atom is?
Valence electron - Sodium loses one electron to form a sodium ion (valence of 1).
