An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.
In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.
Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻
Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium

Answer : behavior in a field experiment is more likely to reflect real life because of its natural setting, i.e. higher ecological validity than a lab experiment
Explanation:
Answer:
0.83 mL
Explanation:
Given data
- Initial concentration (C₁): 12 M
- Final concentration (C₂): 1.0 M
- Final volume (V₂): 10.0 mL
We can calculate the initial volume of HCl using the dilution rule.
C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂
V₁ = C₂ × V₂ / C₁
V₁ = 1.0 M × 10.0 mL / 12 M
V₁ = 0.83 mL
The required volume of the initial solution is 0.83 mL.
