Show with the help of diagram of electronic configuration how the following compounds are formed from the constituent atom1. sodium chloride |
|
Answer» Explanation: The electron configurations of sodium and chloride ions—the components of table SALT (NaCl)—provide a useful INSIGHT to the octet rule. Sodium (Na) with an electron configuration of 1s22s22p63s1 sheds its outermost 3s electron and, as a RESULT, the Na+ ION has an electron configuration of 1s 22s2 2p6 |
