Describe what would happen if a positively sodium atom and a negatively charged chloringe atom came into contact?
Sodium chloride is formed.
What would happen if a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged ion came into contact?
The ionic compound sodium chloride is formed.
What would happen if a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chlorine ion came into contact?
The ionic compound sodium chloride is formed.
What would happen if a positively charged sodium ion and negatively charged chlorine ion came into contact?
The ionic compound sodium chloride is formed.
Why is sodium not applicable?
The symbol of sodium Na is derived from its Latin name Natrium. Since the periodic table was devised in the times when Latin was prevalent, the symbol came to be Na.
Why would you not find a piece of sodium in nature?
Pure sodium is reactive, in a rather violent way. Any free sodium that could exist naturally would have reacted so as soon as it came into existence. It is unstable, and can only be stable as a compound with other elements like chlorine (sodium chloride).
How did sodium get its name?
The name "sodium" comes from the English word "soda" or the medieval Latin word "sodanum," which means headache remedy. This is a reference to sodium's traditional medical use in alleviating headaches.
When chlorine and sodium came together they have what kind of bond?
Chlorine and sodium form an ionic bond when they come together to make sodium chloride (table salt). This bond is formed by the transfer of electrons from the sodium atom to the chlorine atom, creating positively and negatively charged ions that are attracted to each other.
What would happen if a sodium atom and a chlorine atom came into contact?
The sodium atom would transfer its outer electron to the chlorine atom, forming a sodium ion with a positive charge and a chloride ion with a negative charge. These ions would then be attracted to each other, forming an ionic bond to create sodium chloride, or table salt.
How much Sodium is in coffee If any?
I'm a scientist and I had Starbucks coffee and I analysed it and it came up with a massive 567mg of sodium and that's just in one regular cup imagine how much there could be in a large cup I will try a large and analyse and let everyone know
Will you become sick if you eat sodium gas please explain?
You cannot eat a gas, though you can inhale a gas. Sodium boils at over 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit, so if you came in contact with sodium gas the heat would kill you quickly. Sodium is a solid metal at room temperature. If you tried to eat a piece of sodium it would react violently with the moisture inside your mouth, possibly catching on fire. The reaction would produce sodium hydroxide, a highly caustic substance that would cause serious chemical burns to your mouth, throat, and stomach.
What would happen is a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chlorine ion came into contact?
They would form an ionic bond and combine to create sodium chloride, or table salt. The positive sodium ion would be attracted to the negative chlorine ion, leading to the formation of a stable compound with a neutral charge.
