Not quite right.
Sodium chloride is formed from sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-)
Sodium ions and chlorine ions form sodium chloridemolecules; this forms salt crystals; table salt to be more precise!Equations:Sodium + Chlorine --> Sodium Chloride2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaClIonic equation: Na+ + Cl- --> NaCl
Molten sodium chloride consists of sodium ions and chloride ions and is therefore a conductor of electricity- and can be electrlysed.
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Na+ (sodium ions) and Cl- (chloride ions). (There are also a small number of dissociated H+ and OH- ions as well)
Na+ - sodium
Sodium chloride is formed from sodium and chlorine.
Sodium chloride is a compound of sodium and chlorine formed by ionic bonding of sodium ions and chlorine ions.
The ionic bond of sodium chloride is formed when chlorine gains an electron from sodium.
When solid sodium chloride dissolves in water, the resulting sodium and chloride ions are said to be the products. Product is a general term for any substance which results as the result of a chemical reaction. Thus, if the solution was to be boiled and the ions formed into a solid, the products and reactants would be reversed.
Yes, sodium chloride is NaCl.
The ionic bond is formed because it is a strong electrostatic attraction between sodium and chlorine ions.

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-.
Because between the ions Na+ and Cl- an electrostatic attraction exist.
When NaCl is placed in water, the sodium and chlorine dissociate, giving you ions of chlorine which are negatively charged, and sodium ions which are positively charged. There is no reaction when sodium chloride is placed in water.
Attraction between water molecules and sodium and chloride ions OSS less than the attraction between sodium ions and chloride ions.
The lattice of sodium chloride is face-centered cubic. The chloride ion is surrounded by six sodium cations.
