because chlorine in sodium chloride is not a metal omenka: |

omenka:1. An alloy is a Mixture of metals. 2. Mixtures are defined as "physically" combined entities 3. Compounds are "chemically' combined entities 4. Since NaCl is a compound it therefore can not be referred to as an alloy |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Rawblings(m): 5:04pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
NaCl is a compound. Alloys are mixtures Mixtures don't have formula because they contain many substance which makes them heterogeneous |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Gloryejims(f): 5:04pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
The reason is that sodium attaches itself very strongly to other elements. Its compounds are very difficult to break apart |

The bonding power between dem are strong, |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by perrypablo: 5:05pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
an alloy is a mixture or combination of two metals whereas nacl is made up of metal sodium and a non metal chlorine thus making a compound |

veilkonsultant:There are many alloys resistant to corrosion. Wrong. |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by projet: 5:05pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Sodium-potassium alloy, colloquially called
NaK (commonly pronounced /næk/ ), [1] is an
alloy of two alkali metals sodium (Na, atomic
number 11) and potassium (K, atomic number
19) and which is usually liquid at room
temperature |

omenka:they don't conduct electricity |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Nobody: 5:05pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:. Alloy is combination of two or more metals...NaCl,contains a metal and non-metal. NaCl is an ionic compound.(A salt) |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by omenka(m): 5:05pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
perrypablo:There are alloys that combine metals and non metals. Wrong. |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Nobody: 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
An alloy simply means the combination of two metals...
sodium is a metal bt chlorine is not...
so sodium chloride cannot be referred to as an alloy... |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by veilkonsultant: 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
... sodium chloride is an end product of reactions. so can't be regarded as alloy |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by INCREDIBLEGUY: 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
it can not be referred to sodium chloride because Sodium chloride, also known as salt or halite, is an ionic compound with the chemical formula NaCl, representing a 1:1 ratio of sodium and chloride ions why allow is a metal made by combining two or more metallic elements, especially to give greater strength or resistance to corrosion |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by sollybatuaoye001(m): 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
NaCl is a mixture of metal and non metal while alloy is a mixture of metals |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Shamoo100(m): 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:Because of its reaction rate with metals |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by omenka(m): 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Jesuspikin8:Wrong. |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by jerryflames(m): 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Salt, for example (sodium chloride, NaCl), is considered an ionic compound, not an alloy of sodium. This is because if the unlike atoms in a substance are attracted by strong electrical forces, the result is not an ordered solid solution with metallic properties but a true chemical compound |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Boldwinner(m): 5:06pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:This is because sodium chloride cannot be broken down into it's constituent elements as in the case of an alloy. |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by VinceSpence(m): 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Sodium chloride is not alloy cause is not a metal.An alloy is metal consisting of two elements of which one of the element is a metal. |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by gemiclem(m): 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
because of the effect of salt on rust |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Jesuspikin8: 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:Confirm my second answer please |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Munner(m): 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Because it forms an ionic compound/ salt |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by xender(m): 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements that have a high atomic weight and a density at least 5 times greater than that of water. Sodium is a member of the alkali metals family |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by ModusOperandi(f): 5:07pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:Alloys are mixtures of metals, without ionic or covalent bondng. NaCl is a mixture of metal and gas (chlorine) and is regarded as a compound *Compounds are formed by combining two more more elements that form a chemical bond between the elements in a ratio dependent on the atomic structure. Bonds are either covalaent or ionic, sodium chloride has an ionic bond, hence its a compound not an alloy |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by DRPAIT123(m): 5:08pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
Bro Omenka,kindly view my answer at the previous pages |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by veilkonsultant: 5:08pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
... alloys are more like the target of reactions processes, that what I meant |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by Sholexyz(m): 5:08pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
omenka:because sodium chloride, common table salt, could be described as a metallic compound in the sense that one of the parent elements in sodium chloride is a metal, while elemental chlorine is a non metal. However sodium chloride itself is not a metal. It is a poor conductor of electricity, |
Re: 100k For Lucky Student Nairalanders. by jerryflames(m): 5:08pm On Sep 18, 2017 |
I'm really waiting for who would eventually win this chemistry question.. Would be interesting |
