Sodium, Na, is a group 1 element and generally holds a +1 charge.
Na(+) is the sodium cation. It is positive, because it has lost one electron. The ion contains 11(+) protonsd and 10 (-) electrons . Hence +11-10 = +1 ( usually shown as '+'.
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-
There are no atoms in NaCl . (Sodium Chloride) . They are all combined together as ions. Na^(+) & Cl^(-) The ratio of positive ion to negative ions is 1:1 NB An atom is an neutral (uncharged) species. An ion is an atom that has lost or gained electrons, and thereby becoming a charged species.

Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
Yes it is. Na is positive ion and Cl is negative ion.
Sodium chloride is very useful. Sodium ion is the positive ion.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
sodiumtetrahydoxylaluminate(Na(alOH4))
The Na+ you are referring to is a sodium ion.
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
Na(+) is the sodium cation. It is positive, because it has lost one electron. The ion contains 11(+) protonsd and 10 (-) electrons . Hence +11-10 = +1 ( usually shown as '+'.
Yes. Salt contains the positive ion Na+ and the negative ion Cl-. That means it is a salt.
Sodium will be positive. Check your periodic table; all those elements on the left will always be positive ions.
In lye (NaOH), sodium (Na) has a charge of +1, while the hydroxide ion (OH) has a charge of -1. Therefore, the correct pairing is Na positive and OH negative. The other options do not accurately represent the charges of these ions.
