Is salt a metal or nonmetal?

Table salt is made of a chlorine ion and a sodium ion. Sodium is a metal, and chlorine is a nonmetal. Salt on its own is neither; it is an ionic compound. Table salt is a salt. We use the term salt to mean table salt very often, but in chemistry, we have to refine our use of the term to include some other ideas. A salt is what results from the combination of an acid and a base. (Water is also produced.) Table salt, sodium chloride (NaCl), is one of many salts. Just for starters, any Group 1 or Group 2 metal combined with any halogen (the Group 17 nonmetals) forms a salt. And there are more. Remember to consider in what application you're using the term "salt" so you can plug into the right set of ideas. If we're talking about salt in the kitchen or on a cooking show, that's sodium chloride or table salt. In the chemistry lab, we've just used a general term that we have yet to make more specific.


How are table table sugar and salt different?

well one is sugar and one is salt...


If sodium lost one electron and chloride gained one electron what would be the ionic charges?

The ion of sodium would have a +1 charge (one electron short) and the chloride ion would be -1 (one extra electron). These are the actual ion forms in table salt, NaCl, when it is dissolved in water.


What is the table of salt made of?

sodium chloride..... seriously needed to come on Answers.com to find that one out?


Is salt made of atoms or molecules?

Salt crystals are formed from molecules, which are made of atoms. Table salt is sodium chloride, a compound whose molecules contain one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine, joined by an ionic bond (sodium loses an electron and becomes a positive ion, chlorine gains an electron and becomes a negative ion).


What equal amounts of products are in salt?

In any weight of pure salt (NaCl) there is one sodium ion for each chloride ion present.


Is salt water a element?

In chemistry salt water is considered a mixture of the two different compounds salt and water.Salt water is NOT an element. Water isn't even an element. Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O) that have bonded together. Salt, or sodium chloride isn't an element either, it is composed a ratio of one sodium ion to every one chlorine ion (NaCl).


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.


Which element is in table salt?

Table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) contain sodium and chlorine. _________________________ Table salt is sodium chloride; one atom of sodium with one atom of chlorine. Funny how an explosive metal bound to a poisonous gas turns out to be essential to life.


Does table salt contain carbon compounds?

No, the chemical formula for table salt is NaCl, one atom of Sodium and one atom of Chlorine.

In what ways are table sugar and table salt different?

ones sweet ones notNO...i think he needs to know the structural difference.Nope, the people that answered above don't take these questions seriously. what they mean is, what would salt and sugar fall under, atoms, elements, mixtures, or pure substances..Which of the answers listed?so which one is it?raw sugar issweeti think it is a mixture because substance is in liquid formwell one is sugar and one is salt...
