The name sodium chloride is adopted to follow IUPAC rules of nomenclature for salts:
name of the cation + name of the anion (with the suffix -ide)
Sodium from the cation sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-) from the anion.
The reaction of 2-chloro-2-methylpropane with sodium metal results in a nucleophilic substitution reaction where the sodium displaces the chlorine atom, forming sodium chloride and 2-methylpropane. This process involves the formation of a new C-C bond and conversion of sodium to sodium chloride.
They are named from the acids: sodium chloride, sodium carbonate, sodium sulfate, sodium phosphate, sodium citrate, sodium oxalate, sodium fluoride etc.
Because the formula unit is NaCl.In sodium chloride, sodium is a cation which is named first. It is followed by ame of anion which is chlorine.
Chlor-alkali process is really a whole range of processes associated with salt (sodium chloride) and sodium and chlorine. The primary products are sodium and chlorine. Chlorine has almost limitless uses from simple bleach to plastics manufacture. Sodium is basically a byproduct but generally finds use once converted to caustic soda (sodium hydroxide).

The chemical mame of salt is sodium chloride (NaCl).
The reaction between 1-chlorobutane and sodium ethoxide (not ethyl oxide) leads to the formation of but-1-ene and sodium chloride. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is C4H9Cl + NaOCH2CH3 → C4H8 + NaCl.
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
NaCl, an ionically bonded compound named "sodium chloride".
A compound containing sodium and chlorine in a binary ionic compound would be named sodium chloride.
