For a chemical reaction, the results would be the same with different amounts of barium chloride present if barium chloride is not the limiting reactant of the reaction. The limiting reactant is the substance that is totally consumed when the reaction proceeds to completion. In other words, it dictates the amount of products that will be produced. Otherwise, if barium chloride is the limiting reactant, the amount of barium chloride present would definitely affect the results.
Explanation:
Bond forming:
Given species:
Na - Sodium Cl - Chlorine
Na has a valence electron
Cl has 7 valence electron
To form a bond of this nature, there must be a transfer of electrons.
Here, the bond is between a metal and non-metal
The metal is sodium and the non-metal is chlorine;
Na → Na⁺ + e⁻ loss of 1 electron
2,8,1 2,8
isoelectronic with Neon
Cl + e → Cl⁻ gain of one electron
isoelectronic with Argon
Na⁺ + Cl⁻ → Na⁺.Cl⁻
This bond type is an ionic bond
