1 because Na ions have a +1 charge while Cl ions have a -1 charge.
The charge of Na is +1 and the charge of Cl is -1.
Na cl2
In neurons, ________ ions are at higher concentration inside the cell and ________ ions are at higher concentration in the extracellular fluid. A) Cl; organically bound B) Cl; K C) K; Na D) Cl; Na E) Na; K
salt is a compound because its made up of Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) which is NaCl.
NA+ and Cl-
NaCl-----------------Na+ + Cl-is a dissociation reaction.
The charge of Na is +1 and the charge of Cl is -1.
NaCl is the formula unit of sodium chloride. The ions are: Na+ and Cl-.
2: Na+, Cl-
Na cl2
NaCl---------------→Na+ + Cl-
Na^(+) + Cl^(-) = NaCl(s)
Ionic compounds tend to shatter when struck with a hammer. This is due to the crystal structure formed by an ionic compound, which is basically repeating units of negatively and positively charged ions in some sort of geometric arrangement. When struck, ions of similar charge and pushed next to each other. These ions repel and the whole crystal will then cleave apart along the crystal pattern. example: Left undisturbed NaCl crystal, right struck Na Cl :crys.tal breaks along crystal pattern Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Metallic bonds are better pictured as an electron sea, where all the metal atoms that are participating are freely sharing electrons amongst each other. Because of this there are no localized charges to repel each other, making metallic bonds far less susceptible to shattering.
Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl NaCl = salt.
+1 for Na and -1 for Cl
In neurons, ________ ions are at higher concentration inside the cell and ________ ions are at higher concentration in the extracellular fluid. A) Cl; organically bound B) Cl; K C) K; Na D) Cl; Na E) Na; K
na + cl- na - electronic configuration 2,8,1 cl - electronic configuration 2,8,7 na -e --> na + cl +e -->cl - so they formed a ironic bond between them
