Is sodium chloride two metals two nonmetals a metal and a nonmetal or a nonmetal and a noble gas?
Sodium chloride contains the metal sodium and the non metal chlorine.
Is Solid sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
yes, because it is an ionic compund, made of the ionic bond of sodium and chloride. an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal and sodium is a metal while chloride is a nonmetal.
Is sodium chloride classified as metals?
No, sodium chloride is classified as a salt. It is a compound fo sodium, a metal, and chlorine, a nonmetal.
Why the term molecule is appropriate for hydrogen chloride but not for sodium chloride?
Hydrogen and chlorine are both nonmetals, and nonmetals form molecular compounds when bonded together. Sodium is a metal and chlorine is a nonmetal, and a metal and a nonmetal form an ionic compound.
What non-metals can be bonded with metals to make salt?
The two elements that make the compound "salt", are sodium (metal) and chloride (non-metal). These two elements are bonded together to create sodium chloride as we call it "salt". Sodium particle-> O + O <-Chloride particle = Sodium chloride (salt).
How are the salts named?
Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal are named this way: [metal] [nonmetal root]-ide Examples: sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride potassium + iodine = potassium iodide Salts made from a metal or other complex cation and a nonmetal or other complex anion are named based on the cation and anion names: ------------------------------- ammonium ion + hydroxide ion = ammonium hydroxide sodium ion + hypochlorite ion = sodium hypochlorite calcium ion + chloride ion = calcium chloride
What is the rule used for naming a binary compound composed of a metal bonded to a nonmetal?
The first is the metal, the second is the nonmetal with the suffix -ide; ex.: sodium chloride.
Which non-metal element is in table salt?
Table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) contain sodium and chlorine. Chlorine is a nonmetal.
How do you name compounds with ionic bonds?
Metal first and ide added to nonmetal trailer. Sodium chloride. ============
Sodium metal can react with the nonmetal chlorine to form?
An ionic compound (of a type called a salt) with the name sodium chloride and formula NaCl.
Is sodium metal nonmetal metalliod?
Sodium is a metal (an alkali metal)
Is sodium metal or nonmetal tell you?
Sodium is an alkali metal.
