What type of molecule is Na plus?
Na+ is not a molecule; it is an ion, specifically a sodium ion.
When NaCl dissolves in water which end of the water molecule is attracted to the Na plus?
The oxygen end of the water molecule is attracted to the Na+ ion. This attraction occurs due to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule and the positive charge on the sodium ion.
What is the smallest unit of salt that is still salt an atom or a molecule?
The smallest unit of salt that is still salt is a molecule. Salt is typically composed of one sodium ion (Na+) and one chloride ion (Cl-), which together form a neutral molecule of sodium chloride (NaCl). Each molecule of NaCl contains one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine.
Chemical formula of a fluoride atom?
'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'.
When a Na atom loses one electron it gets a charge of what?
An electron has a charge of -1. When a Sodium (Na) atom loses one electron, it loses a negative and becomes a stable Sodium ion with a charge of +1.
What a ion?
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or molecule.
What are the numbers and atoms or ions contained in NaCI?
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.
What type of molecule is Na plus?
Na+ is not a molecule; it is an ion, specifically a sodium ion.
When NaCl dissolves in water which end of the water molecule is attracted to the Na plus?
The oxygen end of the water molecule is attracted to the Na+ ion. This attraction occurs due to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule and the positive charge on the sodium ion.
What is an example of an ion?
An ion is an atom or molecule which has either gained an electron or lost one so that it is no longer neutral.
What is the smallest unit of salt that is still salt an atom or a molecule?
The smallest unit of salt that is still salt is a molecule. Salt is typically composed of one sodium ion (Na+) and one chloride ion (Cl-), which together form a neutral molecule of sodium chloride (NaCl). Each molecule of NaCl contains one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine.
What is ion and molecule?
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
What is any charged atom or molecule?
ion
Is an atom with 11 protons 12 neutrons and 10 electrons an isotope?
This is not an atom. This is an ion. This is Na+ ion.
What is the ion formed by a sodium atom called?
Sodium, Na, is in group 1 of the periodic table, so to achieve a complete valence shell, it forms a cation with a charge of 1, Na1+.
How does a charged ion differ from a neutral 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-
A molecule or an ion that is bonded to the central atom of a complex ion is called?
A molecule or an ion that is bonded to the central atom of a complex ion is called a ligand. Ligands can donate pairs of electrons to the central metal atom or ion, forming coordinate covalent bonds.
