Table salt has the chemical formula nacl. table sugar has the chemical formula c12h22011. which of the following is trueboth compounds are held together by chemical bonds
both compounds have the same density
both compounds react to water
both compounds contain the element carbon

The correct option is both compounds are held together by chemical bonds

Explanation:

Table sugar is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁. Like every other organic compound, the carbon atoms (that carry the hydrogen atoms and the functional groups) are held together by covalent bond.

Table salt (NaCl) is a compound held together by ionic/electrovalent bond. The sodium atom (Na) transfers its valence electron to become sodium ion (Na⁺) while the chlorine atom (Cl) receives this valence electron to become chloride ion (Cl⁻). This type of bonding is known as ionic bonding.

From the above, it can be deduced that both compounds are held together by chemical bonds.
