The correct answer is A. True.

Sodium chloride does not have an overall charge, as it formed of charged ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻. In the formation of sodium chloride, the sodium loses its outer-shell electron to form the sodium ion or Na⁺. Chlorine takes on sodium's electron to become the ion or Cl⁻. The electrostatic attraction between the positive and negative ions holds the salt crystal together. Equal  number  of positive  and negative  charges  form neutral  NaCl.

  When  sodium chloride  is formed  from a positively charged sodium atom and a  negatively  charged  chlorine  atom,  the charge  on the salt becomes  neutral   is true

 Explanation

Sodium  ion ( positively  charged)  combine with chloride  ion ( negatively charged)  to  sodium chloride which  is neural  according  to equation below.

Na⁺   +  Cl⁻    →  NaCl  (<em>neutral</em>)

Equal  number  of positive  and negative  charges  add up to make neutral  Nacl therefore the statement above is true.

Which statement describes one feature of Rutherford’s model of the atom? The atom is mostly empty space. The atom cannot be divi
Dovator [93]

Answer: The atom is mostly empty space.

Explanation:

Before to Rutherford, the accepted model for the atom was Thomson's model:

The atoms were a positive sphere, with electrons occupying space in it".

This was called the "plum pudding model".

Then came Ernest Rutherford, and he created a model where the atoms are mostly empty space (void) with a positive charged nucleus (really compressed in the center), and the electrons were orbiting around it.

Then the correct option is that the atom is mostly empty space.
