Question 10 • Chemistry

What is the ratio of sodium ions to bromide ions in neutral sodium bromide?

Answer
A
ratio of 3 to 2
B
ratio of 2 to 3
C
ratio of 1 to 1
D
ratio of 2 to 1

Explanation

Sodium ions have a +1 charge, and bromide ions have a −1 charge. One sodium ion balances the charge of one bromide ion, so neutral sodium bromide has a 1 to 1 ratio of sodium ions to bromide ions. The correct choice is a ratio of 1 to 1.
