What are the forces that hold sodium and chloride ions together?

1 answer:

6 0

Sodium is a metal, Chloride is a non-metal.

Right off the bat, you know that in order for both of these atoms to achieve a full valence shell that the metal has to lose electrons, and the non-metal has to gain them.

Therefore, you have the transfer of electrons in this bond in order to form ions.
Na+ and Cl-. This transfer of electrons in a bond is called an {{ Ionic Bond}}

Use the equation editor or "Insert Chemistry - WIRIS editor" to write the balanced molecular chemical equation for the reaction

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

<u>Balanced equation:</u>

$Pb(NO_{3})_{2}(aq)+K_{2}CO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow PbCO_{3}(s)+2KNO_{3}(aq)$

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between Lead(II) Nitrate and potassium carbonate is as follows.

$Lead(II)Nitrate+Potassium\,carbonate \rightarrow Lead(III)\,\,carbonate+Potassium\,nitrate$

$Pb(NO_{3})_{2}(aq)+K_{2}CO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow PbCO_{3}(s)+2KNO_{3}(aq)$

<u>Ionic equation:</u>

$Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_{3}^{-}(aq)+2K^{+}(aq)+CO_{3}^{2-}(aq)\Leftrightarrow PbCO_{3}(s)+K^{+}(aq)+2NO_{3}^{-}$

Cancel the same ions on the both sides of the reaction.

The net ionic equation is as follows.

$Pb^{2+}(aq)+CO_{3}^{2-}(aq)\Leftrightarrow PbCO_{3}(s)$
