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
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
A negative divided by a positive is negative. A negative divided by a negative is positive. A positive divided by a positive is positive. A positive divided by a negative is negative.
the formula for Na positive and Cl negative is NaCl.Commonly called as table SALT
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
Yes it is. Na is positive ion and Cl is negative ion.
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
The positive cation Na+ and the negative anion Cl-
its either positive or neutral
No element on its own has a charge. However, in all of its compounds sodium forms a positive ion.
Written like that it's neither negative nor positive; it's neutral.Sodium is much (as in several orders of magnitude) more likely to form a cation (positive) than an anion (negative), though.
sodiumtetrahydoxylaluminate(Na(alOH4))
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
Na: positive; OH: negative
