Question

Which of the following statement is false for sodium chloride. (Na Cl) *

1 point

1 Na is a metal & Cl is a non metal

2 Na + is a cation & Cl - is an anion

3 NaCl is called as ionic compound

4 Cl- is a cation and Na+ is an anion

​

Answer 1

Answer:

option 4 is wrong

cl- is a cation and na is an anion

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is 4) Cl- is a cation and Na+ is an anion

Explanation:

• Ionic molecules are created by combining cations and anions.
• The cation of sodium chloride is (Na+) and the anion of sodium chloride is (Cl-).
• In the crystal structure, the anion (Cl-) and the cation (Na+) alternate back and forth in a known pattern.
• The sodium atom is transferring one of its valence electrons to the chlorine atom.
• As a result, a sodium cation and a chlorine anion are created.
• An anion is a patch or a group of atoms with one or further negative electric charges.
• Cations have one or further positive charges attached to them.
• charges attached to them. One or more negative charges are transported by anions.
• When metal atoms come together, cations are produced.
• cations are produced.Cl is a non-metal, while Na is a metal.
