The unit formula for sodium bromide is NaBr. There is one sodium ion and one bromide ion. Add the atomic weights from the periodic table for sodium and bromine. This will give you the formula weight. Atomic weight Na = 22.989770 Atomic weight Br = 79.904 Formula weight NaBr= 22.989770 + 79.904 = 102.894 Save
Positive.
Sodium is the major positive ion outside the cell. Potassium is the major positive ion inside the cell.
The bromide ion has a 1- charge.
"Bromine" is the name of an atom or an element. The corresponding ion is named "bromide".
A metal bromide contain the ion Br-; sodium bromide is an example.
It contains the sodium ion Na+ and the chlorate ion ClO3- Since sodium is the positive ion (cation) you name it first, then you name the chlorate ion second because it is the anion (negative ion). so the name of the compound is sodium chlorate.
Sodium chloride is very useful. Sodium ion is the positive ion.
The charge of a positive sodium ion is +1 C.
Bromide

A sodium ion differs from a sodium atom in that the sodium ion has a missing electron electron. It has a positive charge, as opposed to the atom, which is neutral.
Positive.
Sodium is the major positive ion outside the cell. Potassium is the major positive ion inside the cell.
Yes.
Yes, sodium will lose an electron to form a positive ion, Na+
No: sodium forms a positive ion in its ionic compounds.
