The molecules of Sodium chloride holds a chemical bond to become stable when dry is an ionic bond.

<h3>What are chemical bonds?</h3>

The chemical bonds are those which holds the atoms of molecules together and creates a temporary connection between them.

The three major types of chemical bonds are:

  • Ionic bonds
  • Covalent bonds
  • Metallic bonds

<h3>What are ionic bonds?</h3>

The ionic bonds generally occurs in between a metal and a nonmetal ions.

The atoms share electrons in between them to become stable, forms ions. Due to electric attraction between these ions forms a bond between them. That bond is called as Ionic bond.

<h3>The type of chemical bond in Sodium chloride:</h3>

Sodium chloride - NaCl

Where Na(sodium) forms Na⁺ ion(metal) by sharing electrons with the chlorine atom and Cl(chlorine) forms Cl⁻ ion(non-metal).

So, due to the attraction between the anion and the cation, a bond is established between them. So, it is called Ionic bond.

Therefore, the chemical bond in Sodium chloride is an Ionic bond.

If two gases are present in a container, the total pressure in the container is equal to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.

Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2

where Ptotal is the total pressure

P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.

Write a word equation for the combustion of propane???<br> HELP????
frutty [35]

Answer:

1 mole of propane combines with 5 moles of oxygen gas to produce 3 mole of carbon dioxide and 4 moles of water.

Explanation:

The word equation for the combustion of propane can be obtained from the chemical equation;

      C₃H₈   +    5O₂    →   3CO₂   +   4H₂O  

The word equation is therefore:

 1 mole of propane combines with 5 moles of oxygen gas to produce 3 mole of carbon dioxide and 4 moles of water.

For such a combustion reaction, carbon dioxide and water are produced in the process.

Which element of the third period had the highest first ionization energy?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

C.) Argon

Explanation:

This is because ionisation energy increases as we move from left to right in a period. Argon presents in the right most column and Argon is a novel gas and has 8 electrons in outermost orbital. So, it is highly stable. I hope I helped! ^-^

How does an atom become a positively charged ion
sladkih [1.3K]
When, it donates electons.

as for example take
NaCl ( sodium chloride)

it's an ionic compund,
that means it is formed by donating or gaining electrons

Na is writen first than, it must be electropositive i.e it has donated electons which made it positive and the clorine gains electron so it's electronegative.

Na is positive because
as we know it's atomic number is 11 that means it has 11 protons and 11 electrons
now, when it donate electon it has, greater number of protons whose change is +ve so the atom becomes overall positively charged ion or cation.

and something same happens in clorine and because it gains one electron and the number of electrons increase in it by 1 whise charge is -ve so, the atom becomes negatively charged ion or anion which has a -1 charge.
