Sodium Chloride, commonly known as table salt, is an ionic compound formed from the neutralization reaction of sodium and chlorine.
This is a symmetrical three-dimensional arrangement of atoms inside a crystal. In NaCl, each sodium ion is surrounded by six chloride ions and vice versa.
This refers to the ability of a solute (like NaCl) to dissolve in a solvent (like water).
This measures an atom's ability to attract shared electrons towards itself. In NaCl, chlorine has higher electronegativity than sodium.
