^ Please note that the formula is AlCl3 meaning that it is not Cl3- but (Cl3)3-, i.e. one for each chlorine
negative
A compound/molecule with an ionic bond.
Surely meant: AlCl3 for aluminum chloride
There are two ions, aluminum is one ion and chloride is the other ion
Not in table salt it can be if because salt is going to be a positive ion from a basic solution and a negative ion from an acidic solution and if aluminum hydroxide is your basic solution and you have some other acid then your salt will contain aluminum.
negative
negative
Sodium chloride is very useful. Sodium ion is the positive ion.
No, it's Negative
No, aluminum does not become a negative ion; like all metals, it forms a positive ion.
Chloride ion in AlCl3 has a charge of -1. The compound AlCl3 is aluminum chloride, which is an inorganic compound that can react with water.
A compound/molecule with an ionic bond.
Surely meant: AlCl3 for aluminum chloride
I believe it is Chloride? If you know the answer for sure please post it!! thank you!!
Chlorine would form a negative ion and the other three positive ions.
generally negatively charged chloride ion. but there are a few species where chlorine has positive charge like ClO3-, ClO4- etc.
Aluminum is 3+ and chloride is 1-. So, you need 3 chloride ions to neutralize 1 aluminum ion.
