Part C
What is the result of the animated process?
To view the animation, click here. Then click on the image to start the animation.
ANSWER:
Correct
Sodium loses an electron and thus becomes positively charged; chlorine gains an electron and thus becomes negatively charged.
Part D

ANSWER:
no atoms other than sodium and chlorine
an attraction between ions of opposite charge
water avoidance
the sharing of a single pair of electrons
the unequal sharing of an electron pair
Correct
This is the definition of an ionic bond.
Part A

ANSWER:
0
18
6
12
-1
Correct
This is an atom of carbon, an element with 6 protons. Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
