Sodium Chloride also known as table salt, the sodium has a positive charge and the chloride a negative so after ionization that leaves you with two negative charges because it takes the salt away. possibly disforming the atoms.<span />

Explanation:

Sodium has atomic number of 11 with electronic configuration of :

$[Na]=1s^22s^22p63s^1$

Sodium loose it single electron to attain stability of noble gas configuration. While this process electron gets removed from the outer shell of the sodium atom and it gains positive charge of +1.

$[Na^+]=1s^22s^22p63s^0$

$Na\rightarrow Na^++e^-$ (Ionization)

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be ______ and the liquid should be _______ and the layers

maw [93]

Answer:

Hence,

1) removed

2) drained through the stopcock

3) get eye level with

4) slow the draining

5) switch to a new flask

Explanation:

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be removed and the liquid should be drained through the stopcock, and the layers allowed to separate. When you get close to the interface between the layers, get eye level with the funnel and turn over to slow the draining heat up until the first layer is collected. Switch to a new flask get eye level with it to collect the second layer.
