How many ions of chlorine surround each ion of sodium?
the best abswer is six
How many sulfide ions would surround each lead ion?
18
How many ions are required to form sodium Chloride?
Your phrasing is slightly off. It does not require ions to form sodium chloride; that compound is made from atoms of sodium and chlorine (one of each). Once the compound is formed, the sodium and chlorine then become ions, Na+ and Cl-.
What are chlorine ions?
The ions of the element Cl (chlorine) are called chloriDe, formula Cl-
Iodide reacting with chlorine to form iodine?
Iodide ions reacts with Chlorine to form elementary Iodine and Chloride ions

Is ozone depletion a result of the interaction of Chlorine ions and CFCs?
no, the interaction is of chlorine ions and oxygen

What type of bond between chlorine and chlorine?
ionic bond between Na+ ions and Cl- ions

Which element loses electrons in sodium chloride?
The chloride ions lose a single electron each to become chlorine.
Does potassuim and chlorine have opposite charges?
Potassium and chlorine atoms have the same charge, specifically 0. However, if one atom of each of these elements encounters an atom of the other, the potassium atom will transfer one of its electrons to the chlorine atom, leading to potassium ions and chloride ions, which do have opposite charges.
Iodide reacting with chlorine to form iodine?
Iodide ions reacts with Chlorine to form elementary Iodine and Chloride ions
