Sdoium chloride does not have an overall charge, it only has charged ions (which are Na+ and Cl-)
If a sodium atom meets a chlorine atom, the sodium loses its outer-shell electron to form the sodium ion Na+. Chlorine takes on sodium's electron to become the ion Cl-. It also has a new name: chloride. Both ions are more stable than the neutral atoms from which they were formed, and exist as NaCl, sodium chloride (common salt). The electrostatic attraction between the positive and negative ions holds the salt crystal together. (Note that in the final formula the charges are not shown, although each ion still has its charge.)
A sodium ion. Cation. Na+ A chlorine ion. Anion Cl- Forms NaCl, sodium chloride.
The compound is neutral.
The compound NaCl contains sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) atoms. Sodium contributes one positively charged ion (Na+) and chlorine contributes one negatively charged ion (Cl-) in the ionic compound sodium chloride (NaCl).
Dissolving sodium chloride (table salt) in water is a physical change. When sodium chloride dissolves, it dissociates into its constituent ions (sodium and chloride) but retains its chemical identity. The process is reversible; the salt can be recovered by evaporating the water, demonstrating that no new substances are formed.
false
Sodium Chloride(NaCl) is not charged because sodium has a +1 charge while chloride has a -1 charge. This causes a balance in charge so the resulting compound is neutral(no charge)
Sodium chloride is neutral.
Sodium chloride is a compound, not an element; sodium chloride is electrically neutral.
Sodium chloride is made up of sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl) ions. These ions are held together by ionic bonds, with sodium having a positive charge and chloride having a negative charge. The ratio of sodium ions to chloride ions is 1:1 in sodium chloride.
Sodium ions have positive charge whereas chloride ions have negative charge. They alternatively form electrostatic bonds to create the NaCl lattice which is ionic.
Sodium chloride is neutral.
Sodium and chloride react together to form table salt, or sodium chloride. Sodium is a metal with a positive charge, while chloride is a non-metal with a negative charge, so they bond together through ionic bonding to create a stable compound.
Because the charges of these ions are reciprocical neutralized.
When sodium and chloride ions combine to form sodium chloride (table salt), the sodium ion carries a positive 1 charge, and the chloride ion carries a negative 1 charge. The charges balance out in a one-to-one ratio, resulting in a neutral compound.

Sodium chloride is a lattice.Sodium ion is the positive ion.
Sodium chloride is electrically neutral because it consists of an equal number of positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions. The positive charge from sodium ions cancels out the negative charge from chloride ions, resulting in an overall neutral compound.
