Chemists use the term salt to broadly refer to any ionic compound, but what most people call salt is table salt, also known as sodium chloride (NaCl). Table salt consists of molecules, each of which has one sodium atom and one chlorine atom. Sodium without chlorine, or chlorine without sodium, bears no resemblance to salt.
