It could also be the fact that the element chlorine Cl 17 its only missing 1 electron to be stable like Argon 18 in where its valence shell is full and Sodium Na 3 have 1 extra electron to be stable like Helium 2. Therefore chlorine really wants an extra electron and sodium wants to lose it. This makes the ion NaCl which is present in earth

Its probably becuase of the amount of minerals found in the ocean floor.Salt just so happens to be a major one.not only that,but the amount of salt that the human body emits while while outside,normally by bodies of water,it could also be that.

An atom X has 2 electrons in its outer orbit. What will it do to form a stable ion?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

In a neutral molecule, the sum of the bonding valance electrons must be equal. So the products of the negative element and its charges and the positive element and its charge must be equal.

Explanation:

C1×N1 = C2×N2

If we have a 3 valance electrons , the 'A' charge will be either +3 or -5 for a full octet and valance electron in 'B' atoms will mostly result in acquisition of additional electrons (2) for an octet and relative charge of -2.

Balancing the two,

3 × A = -2 × B

To be equal, A = 2 and B = 3

Therefore, A²B³

What is produced in the electrolysis of brine?
ziro4ka [17]

High concentration of water and salt is the main ingredient of brine. Salt being NaCl and water make brain and important solution in making of chlorine.

Electric terminals are put inside the solutions and with the help of electric current the chemical properties of the solution are changed such that we get chlorine as outcome. This process is carried out in a large scale to get chlorine from NaCl in solution and is called electrolysis of Brine.
