What else can I help you with?
What is metallic ion in the compound NaCI?
Na+, but there is no such thing as NaCI, it is NaCl , simple table salt
Is salt NaCl a solution?
No, NaCl, or table salt, is an ion compound of sodium and chlorine.
How many Cl- ions are there for each Na ion in the formula?
In the formula NaCl, there is one Cl- ion for each Na+ ion. This is because NaCl is a 1:1 ratio compound where one Na ion combines with one Cl ion to form a stable compound.
What atoms does the compound NaCl contain?
The compound NaCl contains sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) atoms. Sodium contributes one positively charged ion (Na+) and chlorine contributes one negatively charged ion (Cl-) in the ionic compound sodium chloride (NaCl).
How do you make a sodium chloride ion?
Sodium chloride is a compound not an ion; after dissociation of NaCl ions are obtained: Na+ and Cl-.
Does salt have sodium?
Yes, sodium chloride (NaCl) has sodium inside. However it is as Na+ ion and not metallic sodium
What is a formula unit and give example?
A formula unit is the smallest ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound. It is the simplest ratio of elements in a compound. For example, in table salt (NaCl), the formula unit is NaCl, representing one sodium ion (Na+) and one chloride ion (Cl-) in the compound.
Is sodium chloride (NaCl) a molecule or a compound?
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound; the term "molecule" is not adequate because NaCl form large lattices.
What Correctly represents an ion pair and a correct formula for the ionic compound the ions form?
An ion pair is made up of a positively charged ion (cation) and a negatively charged ion (anion) that are attracted to each other due to their opposite charges. For example, in the ionic compound sodium chloride (NaCl), the ion pair consists of the sodium cation (Na+) and chloride anion (Cl-). The correct formula for the compound they form is NaCl.
Ionic compound that contains a positive ion other than hydrogen and a negative ion other than hydroxide is a what?
it must be a salt as NaCl or oxidizing agent as KMnO4
Is NaCl a correct formula for an ionic compound?
Yes. However, the correct formula is Na2SO4.
Is NaCl an atom or molecule?
Neither. NaCl is an ionic compound and does not form molecules. It forms a crystal lattice in which every ion is surrounded by six ions of opposite charge. The formula NaCl is a formula unit which gives the simplest whole number ratio of ions in the compound.
