Because sodium has a low electronegativity and chlorine has a high electronegativity; sodium become a cation and chlorine an anion.
NaCl forms ionic bonds.
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.
Water can dissolve NaCl because it has polar molecular structure which allows it to interact with the ions in NaCl, breaking the ionic bonds. Ethanol is a polar molecule as well, making it able to dissolve NaCl through similar polar interactions. Ethanol can also dissolve in water due to its polar characteristics and ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
Yes.The cation,Na +and the anion,Cl -combine to form the ionic compound sodium chloride; NaCl.
Because sodium chloride form giant lattices without a limit between molecules.
No, sodium chloride (NaCl) and hexane do not form a solution because they are immiscible. NaCl is a polar compound that dissolves in water, while hexane is a nonpolar solvent that does not interact with NaCl.
NaCl is formed by ionic bonds because sodium (Na) donates an electron to chlorine (Cl), resulting in the formation of Na+ and Cl- ions that are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, which does not occur in the formation of NaCl.
These salts have ionic bonds.
Because
No sir (or ma'am)! Hydrogen (H-bonds) can only be formed when there is a hydrogen attached to either a Nitrogen, Oxygen, or Fluorine atom. Just remember: it's not an H-bond without N-O-F.
NaCl contains ionic bonds, NH3 contains covalent bonds, K2S contains ionic bonds, and Li3N contains ionic bonds.
NaCl does conduct electricity, but in the an aqueous form or when melted because the bonds holding Na+ and Cl- ions together are dissociated by either the polar nature of water, or by the heat provided to cause melting. The same happens with NaOH, except the ions are Na+ and OH-.
