Answer:
Electronic Configuration of
SODIUM- 2,8,1
CHLORINE-2,8,7
Sodium chloride compound is formed when sodium donates a electron from it's outer shell,and chlorine accepts that electron to form compound called sodium chloride.Both donates and accept electron to become stable.
Electronic Configuration after formation of compound
SODIUM -2,8
CHLORINE-2,8,8
The compound formed is an electrovalent coumpound
"The elements must have 8 electrons in their valence shell to become stable".
plz mark me as brainliest.

Answer:-
Sodium - Z = 11 ; Symbol - Na
Electronic configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
Chlorine - Z = 17 ; Symbol - Cl
Electronic configuration : 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
In the reaction of Sodium chloride (NaCl) , 1 electron is transferred from Sodium to Chlorine.
As we know, the complete transfer of 1 or more electrons from one atom to another is called an Ionic Compound.
Hence, we can say that Sodium chloride is an Ionic Compound.
Additional Information:
Electrovalent or Ionic Bond:
- The chemical bond formed between two or more atoms as a result of the complete transfer of 1 or more electrons from one atom to another is called Ionic or Electrovalent bond.
- Electro positive atom loses electron (Group - IA to III A) and Electronegative atom gains electron (Group - VA to VII A).
- Electrostatic force of attraction between cation and anion is called Ionic Bond.
- IA and VII A group elements form Maximum Ionic Compound.
