Sodium (NA)
the sodium atom is donating its 1 valence electron to the chlorine atom. This creates a sodium cation and a chlorine anion. Notice that the net charge of the resulting compound is 0.
Answer:
Hygroscopic
Explanation:
An hygroscopic substance is one that absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and becomes wet. Their ability to remove water from air is less than that of deliquescent substances. Most of the solid hygroscopic substances forms pasty substances and not solutions like the deliquescent compounds.
Examples are sodium trioxonitrate(v), copper(ii) oxide e.t.c
Efflorescence compounds gives off their water of crystallization to the atmosphere.
<span>density = mass / volume
given the quotient , we have density and mass, volume can be easily calculated as:
volume = mass / p =15.5 g / 0.789 g/cm^3
=~ 20 cm^3 (dimension ally constant)</span>
