Table salt consists of positive charged sodium ions (Na+) and negatively charged chloride ions (Cl-). Because these ions are oppositely charged they strongly attract one another.

Is NACL ionic or covalent bonds why cant it be covalent bond?
NaCl is a type of ionic bond. because it formed by the Na+ and Cl- ions formed in the process of ionization.
Ions formed from Na plus and Cl- are?
Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl NaCl = salt.
What is weight of na in 348 grams of nacl?
[348 (g NACl)] * [23 (g/mol Na)] * [1 (mol NaCl/mol Na)] / [58.5 (g/mol NaCl)] = [348*23/58.5] = 136.8 = 137 g Na
What is the oxidation number of each element in NaCl?
The oxidation number of Na in NaCl is +1, while the oxidation number of Cl in NaCl is -1.
What is the reaction of Na Cl -- Na-Cl?
NaCl-----------------Na+ + Cl-is a dissociation reaction.
How do you classify NaCl--Na plus Cl?
NaCl is sodium chloride, an inorganic salt, with ionic bonds.
What are the elements and bonds of NaCl?
The elements are sodium, Na, and chlorine, Cl. The bond is ionic. The ionic formula is Na+ Cl-
Is NaCl made up of ionic bonds?
Yes.The cation,Na +and the anion,Cl -combine to form the ionic compound sodium chloride; NaCl.
What type of chemical bonds are present in salt?
Salt crystals are held together with ionic bonds. For example, table salt, NaCl, is composed of two ions. The Na ion is positive and the Cl ion is negative. The charges on these ions hold them together into the molecule NaCl. You can think about this like magnets. The positive end is attracted to the negative end of another magnet. This holds the magnets together.
Is NACL ionic or covalent bonds why cant it be covalent bond?
NaCl is a type of ionic bond. because it formed by the Na+ and Cl- ions formed in the process of ionization.
What happens with dissociation in NaCl?
The equation is: NaCl----------Na++ Cl-
What is the cation for NaCl?
The cation, or positively charged ion, in NaCl is Na+.
What is the dissocociation of NaCl to Na Cl?
NaCl---------------→Na+ + Cl-
Na+ and Cl- are ions formed from?
Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl NaCl = salt.
What bonds are easily disrupted in aqueous solution?
Ionic bonds readily disassociate in aqueous solutions. Table salt, or sodium chloride with the molecular formula of NaCl breaks up into Na+ and Cl- ions in these solutions.
What is the dissociation equation for NaCl?
NaCl --> Na+ + Cl- You could write water on either side I suppose, but it is negligible. I've also seen H2O written over the arrow.
Ions formed from Na plus and Cl- are?
Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl NaCl = salt.
