BY The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica | View Edit History

ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions. Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the formerly bonded atoms. Examples of these processes include the reaction of a sodium atom with a chlorine atom to form a sodium cation and a chloride anion; the addition of a hydrogen cation to an ammonia molecule to form an ammonium cation; and the dissociation of a water molecule to form a hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion.

mamaluj [8]
Ideal behavior is approached by gases when the conditions of the system are at a low pressure and high temperatures. Therefore, the correct answer is C. At the conditions of lowest temperature highest pressure, gases will deviate from an ideal gas.

Describe the reaction below by listing the
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The covalent bond in Cl₂ is break and combine with sodium to form NaCl through ionic bond.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Na  +  Cl₂    →   NaCl

Balanced chemical equation:

2Na  +  Cl₂    →   2NaCl

The given reaction indicate the formation of sodium chloride.

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. It is formed by the reaction of chlorine and sodium. The type of bond in Cl₂ is covalent. Both chlorine atoms are tightly held together through sharing of electrons. When sodium chloride is formed the covalent between the chlorine atoms are break and it react with sodium . The chlorine toms thus gain the one electron from the sodium atom and became negative ion while sodium by losing its one valance electrons became positive ions. The strong electrostatic forces are develop between them and ionic bond is formed.
