What form do you get when sodium reacts with nonmetal chlorine?

a noble gas.


How many electrons does sodium need to achieve a noble gas configuration?

Sodium has 11 electrons, and one valence electron To achieve noble gas configurations, it would have to gain 7 electrons, for a total of 18 like Argon has. But this gain is impossible. So Sodium loses one electron to look like Neon which has 10.


What noble or insert gas is used in street signs?
