Sodium chloride/ table salt/ common salt
2: Na+, Cl-
Sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl).
NaCl---------------→Na+ + Cl-
Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl NaCl = salt.
Na is the symbol of sodium and Cl is the symbol of chlorine.
na + cl- na - electronic configuration 2,8,1 cl - electronic configuration 2,8,7 na -e --> na + cl +e -->cl - so they formed a ironic bond between them
Na+ and Cl- are spectator ions.
Ionic compounds tend to shatter when struck with a hammer. This is due to the crystal structure formed by an ionic compound, which is basically repeating units of negatively and positively charged ions in some sort of geometric arrangement. When struck, ions of similar charge and pushed next to each other. These ions repel and the whole crystal will then cleave apart along the crystal pattern. example: Left undisturbed NaCl crystal, right struck Na Cl :crys.tal breaks along crystal pattern Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Cl Na Na Cl Na Cl Cl Na Metallic bonds are better pictured as an electron sea, where all the metal atoms that are participating are freely sharing electrons amongst each other. Because of this there are no localized charges to repel each other, making metallic bonds far less susceptible to shattering.
Na is sodium (11) Cl is Chlorine (17)
The equation is: NaCl----------Na++ Cl-
NaCl-----------------Na+ + Cl-is a dissociation reaction.
The symbol for sodium is Na. The symbol for chlorine is Cl.
