NaCl

The classic example. The chlorine atom, being highly electronegative, accepts the sodium's one valance electron into it's valance shell. This creates two ions of opposite charge that attract one another Na(+) ( now positive with the loss of one negative electron ) and Cl(-) now negatively charged by accepting the donation of one negatively charged electron ) to make NaCl, an ionic compound.

ionic bond


Is NaC1 a compound?

No, NaC1 is not a recognized compound. It seems to be a combination of two separate substances, sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl). The correct chemical formula for table salt, which is a compound made of sodium and chloride ions, is NaCl.

Which bond has the most ionic character?

Probably Francium Fluoride ( FrF). However, you will NOT find this substance in an open lab. because Francium (Fr) is radio-active. The first ionisation energy of francium is very low. and the 1st electron affinity of fluorine is very high . So they will ionically bond very readily.


What is the classification of NaC1?

NaCl is classified as a salt, specifically a binary ionic compound. It is composed of sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-) held together by ionic bonds.


What kind of bond forms when two ions of opposite charges attract each other?

These bonds are called ionic bonds. They are formed by electrostatic attractions.
