Sodium, Na, is a group 1 element and generally holds a +1 charge.
positive (+ is always positive) This means it's an ion, because it's lacking one valence electron
positive
Usually yes, the 1st ion is a cation and the second an anion in an ionic compound. I.e. Sodium chloride consists of Na+ bonding to Cl-
0
Na+ plus OH- plus H+ equals H2O plus Na+ plus Cl-
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
positive (+ is always positive) This means it's an ion, because it's lacking one valence electron
Yes it is. Na is positive ion and Cl is negative ion.
Sodium chloride is very useful. Sodium ion is the positive ion.
sodiumtetrahydoxylaluminate(Na(alOH4))
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
A cation is a positive ion (as Na+). An anion is a negative ion (as Cl-).
they will attract if they have equal and opposite charges, such as Na and Cl
Yes. Salt contains the positive ion Na+ and the negative ion Cl-. That means it is a salt.
The sodium ion (Na+) is a cation (positive charge) and the fluoride ion (F-) is an anion (negative charge).
Na: positive; OH: negative
No element on its own has a charge. However, in all of its compounds sodium forms a positive ion.
