Is salt a molecule or atom?
Neither. Table salt is an ionic compound.
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron comes in contact with an atom that gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
Ion that contains more than one atom?
No, an ion can be made up of one or more atoms; and is classed as an ion when there is a difference in the total number protons in the nucleus/nuclei of the atom/compound and the total number of electrons orbiting the atom ( /atoms if it's a compound.)
What happens when an atom that has lost a electron comes in contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
-Apex: They form an Ionic Compound.
What is the used to determine the number of each atom in an ionic formula?
Oxidation state is what determines the number of each atom. This is in the ionic formula.

What happens to a sodium atom that has lost an electron comes near a chlorine atom that has gained an electron?
Sodium chloride is formed by an ionic bond.
Is NaBrO3 molecular or ionic?
If a compound contains at least one metal atom and at least one nonmetal atom, the compound is ionic. Na (Sodium) is a metal. Br (Bromine) is a nonmetal. Therefore, the compound NaBr is ionic.
Is salt a molecule or atom?

Smallest piece of an ionic compound?
An ion (or a charged atom).
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron in contact with an atom that has gain an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron in contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What would an aluminum atom tend to do in bonding with another atom to form an ionic compound?
When aluminum forms an ionic compound, it tends to take the form of a cation with a +3 charge. This would happen because it would donate three of its electrons to the anion(s) it forms the ionic compound with.
