Is sodium and chloride an element or a compound or a mixture?

Answer 1

Sodium is an element, as it consists of just one type of atom. Its symbol is Na, atomic number 11. A compound on the other hand is two or more elements that have chemically bonded together, while a mixture can be defined as two or more substances that have been brought together, but have not reacted chemically to form a new substance.

Answer 2

We know that sodium hydroxide is a chemical compound. It is written as NaOH by those in the know (like you, now that you've read this) and it is what is called a base (and a strong one!). In this compound, one atom of the element sodium (Na) is bonded to an atom of the element oxygen (O) and an atom of the element hydrogen (H). Further, when NaOH is put in water, this base will form what are called ions, and we'll see positive sodium ions, Na+, and negative hydroxide ions, OH-, in solution in the water.

Answer 3

On their own, sodium is an element, and chloride is an element. Together they are a compound because they have been chemically bonded. Together they are known as sodium chloride.

Answer 4

it should be a chemical compund??!! i know iam not smart butt plese blaack people get somethings!!lol

Answer 5

Sodium and chloride are elements. Sodium is a metal element (Na) and chloride is a non-metal element (Cl). When combined, they form the compound sodium chloride (NaCl), commonly known as table salt.

Answer 6

Sodium is an element.

Answer 7
