explain the ionic bond of NaCl
Answers
EXPLAINATION:
iionic bond takes place between metal and a non metal
metal looses electrons and forms a cation(positive charge)
whereas the nonmetal gains electron and form anion (negatively charged)
in NaCl. Na is metal and looses one electro
- whereas chlorine gains one electron from sodium
as these are oppositely charged particles due to electrostatic force NaCl is formed
Hope it is helpful:)
in a Nacl commonly known as common salt having ionic bond because sodium atom are of alkali in nature having one Valence electron form bond with chlorine atom having one less electron to complete its octet belongs to halogen family form ionic bond with sodium atom
for Nacl more about
