How are sodium and chlorine ions different from salt molecules?

A sodium ion is a sodium atom missing one electron. A chlorine ion is a chlorine atom with an extra electron. A salt molecule is a sodium ion stuck to a chlorine ion.


How many electron are transferred in the ionic bond between sodium and chlorine NaCl?

Only one, from sodium to chlorine.


Why does the transfer of an electron occur between a sodium atom and a chlorine atom?

Chlorine is extremely electronegative and will steal electrons from the valence shell of sodium. When chlorine steals the electron, both sodium and chlorine have full valence shells.

What is the sodium that reacts with chlorine by giving its outermost electron to chlorine?

the sodium (Na) atom gives its single outermose electron to chlorine to form two ions of different charge.


When sodium and chlorine react the outermost electron of the sodium atom is?

Valence electron - Sodium loses one electron to form a sodium ion (valence of 1).


When sodium interacts with chlorine sodium loses an electron while chlorine gains one this interactions forms?
