Best Answer

Metals and halogens bonded together usually make a salt. For example, sodium (an alkali metal) and chlorine (a halogen) makes sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt. But potassium bromide, calcium fluoride, even cobalt(II) iodide are technically salts as well. And metals with polyatomic ions can also be considered salts, like magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), commonly called epsom salt.

The halogens react with metals to form ionic salts called metal halides. All of the halogens are toxic and must be studied with care.

All the halogens form similar salts with sodium and with the other alkali metals.

Salts.

The metal Sodium (Na) combines with the halogen Chlorine (Cl) to form table salt (NaCl).

Metal halides are formed when halogen reacts with a metal substance. Metal halides are usually covalently bonded. They also can be considered ionic as well.
