What happens to the electrons in a formation of an ionic bond?
Example. Sodium, Na, donates an electron to chlorine, Cl because chlorine's electronegativity is much greater than sodium. So, both achieve the octet state this way and as opposite charges attract they are ionically bonded. Na + A cation and Cl - An anion Form. NaCl Sodium chloride.
How many electrons and protons in Na plus?
The cation of sodium has 11 protons and 10 electrons.
Is the compound sodium chloride the same as the element sodium or the element chlorine?
A compound, by definition is made up of more than one element. Sodium chloride (NaCl) is vastly different from both elemental sodium (which is a metal which dissolves when exposed to water) and chlorine (which is a gas that can kill you if you inhale enough of it). When you react both Sodium and Chlorine however.
What element has more valence electrons than oxygen fewer valence electrons than neon more protons than sodium but fewer protons than argon?
Chlorine
Element that has more valence electrons than oxygen fewer valence electrons than neon more protons than sodium but fewer protons than argon?
Chlorine.
Is chlorine more electronegative than sodium?
Chlorine is more electronegative than sodium. The farther right you move on the periodic table, the more electronegative elements are. Thus, noting that sodium and chlorine are on the same period, and chlorine is farther to the right than sodium, we know that chlorine is more electronegative than sodium
An atom of chlorine has 6 more protons than an atom of sodium How many protons does an atom of chlorine have?
Chlorine has 17 protons.
Why is it difficult to get chlorine out of sodium chloride?
Sodium and chlorine separately contain much more chemical energy than sodium chloride does. In order to separate them you must put that energy into the salt.

How many electrons and protons in Na plus?
The cation of sodium has 11 protons and 10 electrons.
Is silver phosphate more soluble than sodium phosphate?
No - sodium is a group 1 cation and group 1 cations are nearly always soluble. By contrast, the silver cation is very likely to form a precipitate. Source - AP Chem student

Sodium and chlorine are in the same period on the periodic table explain the difference in their sizes?
Sodium is larger than chlorine because chlorine has more protons and outer level electrons which gives the positive nucleus a greater pull on the outer electrons.
Is sodium chloride a polyatomic ion?
No, Sulfur Trixoxide SO3 is a molecule. There is a polyatomic ion called the Sulphite ion which has the formula SO32-.
What elements are in sodium chloride other than sodium and chloride?
Sodium and chlorine are the only elements in sodium chloride.
What element has more valence electrons than oxygen fewer valence electrons than neon more protons than sodium but fewer protons than argon?
Chlorine
What element has more valance electrons than oxygen fewer valance electrons than neon more protons than sodium but fewer prtons than argon?
Chlorine
