An ion is an atom with a couple of extra electrons, or which is missing a couple. So when common table salt (NaCl) dissolves in water, it comes apart as a positively charged sodium ion Na+ which is missing an electron, and a negatively charged Cl- ion which has the extra electron from the sodium atom.
Yes
Pure in what way? Table salt is an example of Sodium, a metal, mixing with Chlorine, a gas: NaCl
The chemical formula is Cr2(SeO4)3.
Li(N03) is the formula of lithium nitrate, Li+ ion and NO3- ion are combined in this salt (compound)
Yes. Salt contains the positive ion Na+ and the negative ion Cl-. That means it is a salt.
So that it is stable. A stable ion means that it is no longer reactive and can be used in daily life. Salt is a good example of this. Salt is etable because it has found an atom with which it can share 8 valence electrons with.
Around the home in common salt, NaCl. In the sea, dissolved. Underground where rock salt, sodium chloride plus other minerals is mined.
A salt
a gold ion
Yes. Salt contains a metal ion and a nonmetal ion bonded together by an ionic bond.
The chloride ion carries a -1 charge.
In any weight of pure salt (NaCl) there is one sodium ion for each chloride ion present.
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.
sodium ion and chlorine ion
Yes, the ion chloride from salt is very corrosive.
It does not
