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
Liquids have a definite volume, but not a definite shape. Hope this helps :)
Because a solubility is calculated for saturated solutions we can write:
36.3 g NaCl ---100g water
x g NaCl ---- 300.0 g water
x=36.3*300/100=108.9 g NaCl
