Explain about the ionic bond formation in sodium chloride. |
|
Answer» When sodium (Na) and CHLORINE (Cl) are combined, the sodium atoms each lose an electron, FORMING cations (Na+), and the chlorine atoms each gain an electron to form ANIONS (Cl−). These ions are then attracted to each other in a 1:1 ratio to form sodium chloride (NaCl) |
