A chlorina atom becomes a chloride in when this happens?
A chlorine atom becomes a chloride ion when it gains an electron from a metal atom, such as sodium.
What happens when Toluene reacts with Chlorine in presence of sun light?
The hydrogen atom of CH3 group in toluene are substituted by chlorine atom.
Which process change a chlorine atom into a chloride ion?
chlorine atom will first convert to the gaseous chlorine atom which will then add one electron to form chloride ion.
What happens when a chlorine atom gains an electron in it's outer energy shell?
When a chlorine atom gains an electron in to its outer most energy shell ( reduction) it becomes the chloride anion. Cl(g) + e^- = Cl^-(g)
How does sodium atom and a chloride atom combine?
A sodium atom has one electron outside a closed shell, and a chlorine atom lacks one electron to fill a shell. A sodium chloride molecule forms by ionic bonding, the ionization of sodium and chlorine atoms and the attraction of the resulting positive and negative ions.
When an atom of chlorine forms an ionic bond with an atom of sodium the atom of chlorine does what?
accepts an electron to become the chloride anion, Cl-
A chlorina atom becomes a chloride in when this happens?
A chlorine atom becomes a chloride ion when it gains an electron from a metal atom, such as sodium.
What happens when Toluene reacts with Chlorine in presence of sun light?
The hydrogen atom of CH3 group in toluene are substituted by chlorine atom.
A chlorine atom will steal an electron from a sodium atom. The result is called an between the sodium and chlorine ions. this forms sodium chloride known as salt?
ionic bond
Which process change a chlorine atom into a chloride ion?

What is the chloride ion and chlorine atom electron configuration?
Cl- Chloride ion 1s22s22p63s23p6 Cl Chlorine atom 1s22s22p63s23p5
Which atom in sodium chloride is reduced?
The chlorine atom.
What happens when a chlorine atom gains an electron in it's outer energy shell?
When a chlorine atom gains an electron in to its outer most energy shell ( reduction) it becomes the chloride anion. Cl(g) + e^- = Cl^-(g)
How many chlorine atoms are present for every atom in a hydrogen chloride molecule?
There is 1 hydrogen atom and 1 chlorine atom in Hydrogen Chloride.
What happens then a sodium atom and a clorine atom exchange an electron?
The sodium atom gives an electron to the chlorine atom to make the sodium and chloride ions respectively. Then they form ionic bonds forming sodium chloride.
Does chlorine atoms and chloride ions have the same no of protons?
Yes. When an atom forms an ion, only electrons are involved.
How does sodium atom and a chloride atom combine?
A sodium atom has one electron outside a closed shell, and a chlorine atom lacks one electron to fill a shell. A sodium chloride molecule forms by ionic bonding, the ionization of sodium and chlorine atoms and the attraction of the resulting positive and negative ions.
