Are properties of sodium chlorine similar to sodium or chlorine?
It's sodium chloride if you're talking about the compound NaCl. And no, the property of the compound will not be the same as the property of either of the elements.
How do the elements sodium and chlorine produce the compound sodium chloride?
The elements sodium and chlorine undergo a chemical reaction which produces sodium chloride. 2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl
What happens to the properties of sodium and chlorine when they react to form common table salt Nacl?
The properties of sodium and chlorine change when the form NaCl. Both elements by themselves would kill you; sodium is highly reactive to water, and chlorine is a deadly gas. But when they combine, they form a compound that is necessary for human life.
How are the properties of sodium chloride different from the 2 elements that make it up?
Sodium is a solid substance and chlorine is gas when they form sodium chloride it is different compound and it is common salt and it is solid.
Is the properties of a compound are usually the same as the properties of the elements from which it is made?
No. The properties of a compound are always differentfrom the elements of which they are made. For example: sodium (Na) is a metal that reacts vigorously with water, and chlorine gas (Cl2) is a slightly green toxic gas. However, when they combine chemically, they produce common table salt, sodium chloride (NaCl).2Na + Cl2 ---> 2NaCl
Are properties of sodium chlorine similar to sodium or chlorine?
It's sodium chloride if you're talking about the compound NaCl. And no, the property of the compound will not be the same as the property of either of the elements.
Would sodium and chlorine maintain their individual properties when they combine to form salt?
No. A compound does not retain the properties of its component elements.
The compound sodium chloride is what elements?
sodium and chlorine
What elements are in sodium chlorine?
Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are both elements. There is no such thing/compound as "sodium chlorine" Table salt is "Sodium Chloride" (NaCl).
When elements form compounds do they take on new properties?
The properties from the original elements are all left behind; almost no compound shows any of the properties of its constituent elements (the most widely used example of this is sodium and chlorine forming sodium chloride).
Sodium chloride is a elementmixture or a compound?
Sodium chloride is a compound as it is formed when sodium and chlorine are chemically bonded with a definite proportion by mass. The elements cannot be separated easily and also do not retain their original properties.
Do compounds have the same properties from which they are made?
No. They can have radically different properties from the elements they're formed from.Easy example: Sodium chloride. Sodium is a highly reactive nonmetal. Chlorine is a highly reactive nonmetal. They combine into a very nonreactive compound - table salt.
When two elements combine to form a compound do the elements keep the same properties they had as individuals or do they adapt with new properties as a compound?
They normally have new properties as a compound, example- sodium metal, extremely reactive, reacts violently with moisture; and chlorine gas, deadly poisonous, react together to form table salt-sodium chloride
How do the elements sodium and chlorine produce the compound sodium chloride?
The elements sodium and chlorine undergo a chemical reaction which produces sodium chloride. 2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl
What happens to the properties of sodium and chlorine when they react to form common table salt Nacl?
The properties of sodium and chlorine change when the form NaCl. Both elements by themselves would kill you; sodium is highly reactive to water, and chlorine is a deadly gas. But when they combine, they form a compound that is necessary for human life.
Is sodium chloride an element or not?
No. It's a compound containing the elements sodium and chlorine.
Idenyify the elements in the compound NaCL?
Sodium chloride contain sodium and chlorine.
