We call sodium as natium in lathin. atomic number of sodium is 11.
If there is only one it's an ion, Na+ If two join together then they form a molecule, Na2
An Na atom is a sodium atom.
an Na atom is a sodium atom
Na+ is not a molecule; it is an ion, specifically a sodium ion.
'Fluoride atom'. ???? The fluorine ATOM is 'F' The fluorine molecule is 'F2'. The Fluoride ION is 'F^-' NB When an atom becomes a charged species, it is no longer an atom , but an ION. The suffix '--ide' indicates it is an ion, not an atom. So 'Fluoride atom' is a nonsense. It is either 'Fluoride ion' or Fluorine atom'.
ion
A sodium atom would lose a electron so it would become a Na+ ion
No, they are covalent bonds. An ionic bond is formed between a group 1 metal and Br.
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or molecule.
Na+ is not a molecule; it is an ion, specifically a sodium ion.
In the NaCl molecule, there's one atom of sodium (Na) and one atom of chloride (Cl). If you separate the two, you get one positive ion of Na and one negative ion of chloride.
a molecule is more than one atom attached together, an ion is an atom/molecule where the number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons in the nucleus
ion
All ions are charged- either positive or negative - there is no such thing as a neutral ion- an ion is a charged atom e.g. Na+ (sodium atom lost 1 electron), Cl- (chlorine atom gained 1 electron) or a molecule (chemists call these polyatomic ions) - e.g. SO42-
This is not an atom. This is an ion. This is Na+ ion.
Sorta, a molecule can neither be positive or negative and atom can only be an ion when in an ionic bond when it received or gave electrons.
'Fluoride atom'. ???? The fluorine ATOM is 'F' The fluorine molecule is 'F2'. The Fluoride ION is 'F^-' NB When an atom becomes a charged species, it is no longer an atom , but an ION. The suffix '--ide' indicates it is an ion, not an atom. So 'Fluoride atom' is a nonsense. It is either 'Fluoride ion' or Fluorine atom'.
