An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.
In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.
Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻
Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium

The answer for the following questions is explained below.
Explanation:
The two variables that affect kinetic energy are:
- mass and
- velocity
- velocity - The faster an object moves,the more the kinetic energy it has.
- mass - Kinetic energy increases as mass increases
The kinetic energy of an object depends on both its mass and its velocity
Kinetic energy increases as mass increases
For example,think about rolling a bowling ball and a golf ball down a bowling lane at same velocity
Here,the bowling ball has more mass than the golf ball
Therefore you use more energy to roll the bowling ball than to roll the golf ball
The bowling ball is more likely to knock down the pins because it has more kinetic energy than the golf ball
Answer:
The manufacturing processes for liquefied petroleum gas are designed so that the majority, if not all, of the sulfur compounds are removed. The total sulfur level is therefore considerably lower than for other crude oil-based fuels and a maximum limit for sulfur content helps to define the product more completely. The sulfur compounds that are mainly responsible for corrosion are hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide and, sometimes, elemental sulfur. Hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans have distinctive unpleasant odors. A control of the total sulfur content, hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans ensures that the product is not corrosive or nauseating. Stipulating a satisfactory copper strip test further ensures the control of the corrosion.
