TWO(2)

Table salt is Sodium Chloride (NaCl) .

One molecule contains one cation of sodium (Na^(+)) and one anion of chlorine(chloride) (Cl^(-))

Na^(+) + Cl^(-) = NaCl(s)

NB The sodium and chlorine are in ionic form , there electron numbers do NOT balance with their respective proton number. Hence they are no longer atoms, but IONS.
