its either positive or neutral
Chloride ion in AlCl3 has a charge of -1. The compound AlCl3 is aluminum chloride, which is an inorganic compound that can react with water.
AuCl3, Gold Chloride, is an ionic compound. The total positive charge must equal the total negative charge. Ionic compounds are electrically neutral.
The charge is 0 if the positive and negative charges were equal
generally negatively charged chloride ion. but there are a few species where chlorine has positive charge like ClO3-, ClO4- etc.
The total positive charge of an ionic compound equally balances the total negative charge; therefore, the ionic compound is electrically neutral.
This compound is of course neutral.
The charge of an acetyl group in a chemical compound is neutral, meaning it has no overall positive or negative charge.
Sodium Chloride does not have free electrons normally, Sodium with electron arrangement: 2,8,1 and Chlorine with electron arrangement: 2,8,7 When they react Sodium ionises to 2,8 ( Ne) Chlorine gains the free electron to ionise to 2,8,8 (Ar) Forming Sodium Chloride or Na+CL-
just put true
The total charge in an ionic compound is always neutral, which means the positive charge of the cations equals the negative charge of the anions. This balance of charges is what holds the compound together through ionic bonding.
When an ionic compound is placed in water, it will split apart into either positive or negative ions. Sodium will form Na+ and chlorine will form Cl-. Positive and negative forces are attracted to each other, so the ions will be slightly pulled toward each other.
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound ( a compound between a metal and a non-metal) It is also a binary compound as it contains two elements. So it can be described as an ionic compound or more precisely as a binary ionic compound. A binary compound is one that contains exactly two elements. Binary compounds may be ionic or covalent.
