How ionic compound form crystal?
When positive ions and negative ions are nearby they are attracted and pair up building an Ionic Crystal.
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.
Do all ionic compounds have the same ratio of ions?
No. The ratio depends on the charges of the ions.
Why do you use the term formula mass instead of molecular mass for ionic compound?
It is impossible to know the mass of a large ionic lattice.
