Webb has calculated the percent composition of a compound. How can he check his result? A) by making sure they are in the lowest ratio
B) by adding them to see if they total 100
C) by checking that they are whole-number multiples
D) by dividing them by the molar mass

by making sure they are in the lowest ratio. by adding them to see if they total 100. by checking that they are whole-number multiples. by dividing them by the molar mass.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
