The metal is sodium, Na. In most compounds, the metal (if there is one) will come first, followed by the non-metal. NaCl is sodium chloride, more commonly known as table salt. It consists of one atom of sodium (a highly reactive alkali metal) and chlorine (a highly reactive non-metal halogen.)
What else can I help you with?
Which substance has covalent bonds a MgBr2 b LiCl c NaCl d CO2 which one is it?
CO2 It is a non metal + a non metal the rest are ionic bonds ie metal + non metal
What compounds has an ionic bond SO3 CO2 NaCl HCl?
SO3 does not form ionic bonds; it forms covalent bonds. CO2 also forms covalent bonds due to its molecular structure. NaCl and HCl both have ionic bonds because they are formed between a metal (Na) and a nonmetal (Cl) in NaCl, and a metal (H) and a nonmetal (Cl) in HCl.
What atoms make up Na CI?
Sodium, Na, and chlorine, Cl, make up NaCl.
Is nacl covalent or inonic?
NaCl is an ionic compound because it is formed by the transfer of electrons from the sodium atom (metal) to the chlorine atom (non-metal), resulting in the formation of sodium cations and chloride anions held together by electrostatic forces.
What is the symbol equation for NaCl?
'NaCl' is the symbol formula. It is synthesised by ignited sodium metal in chlorine gas. 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) = 2NaCl(s) NaCl ( Sodium chloride) is common table salt.
Is NACL metallic?
Sodium chloride is not a metal.
What is a metal halide compound?
Common table salt NaCl is a metal halide.
Where in the formula NaCl is the metal written?
Na, Sodium, from the Latin for natrium, is a metal
What are the metal ions present in sodium chloride?
In sodium chloride (NaCl), there are no metal ions present. Sodium (Na) is a metal cation, and chloride (Cl) is a non-metal anion. When they combine to form NaCl, they do not exist as individual metal ions.
Sodium metal can react with the nonmetal chlorine to form?
An ionic compound (of a type called a salt) with the name sodium chloride and formula NaCl.
Is NaCl a metal or non-metal?
Sodium chloride is a compound, not a chemical element.
Is sodium chloride ionic or covalent compound?
Because sodium is a metal and chlorine is a non metal, it is ionically bonded.
Which substance has covalent bonds a MgBr2 b LiCl c NaCl d CO2 which one is it?
CO2 It is a non metal + a non metal the rest are ionic bonds ie metal + non metal
What is the alkali metal in salt?
NaCl - table salt (there are many salts) Na - Alkali metal Cl - Halogen
What metal's most common compound is table salt?
This metal is sodium (na); sodium chloride is NaCl.
What is the symbol for the metal in salt?
Common table salt is NaCl I think, hence the metal of the salt will be sodium (Na)
What non-metal does salt contain?
The non metal in table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) is chlorine (Cl).
