CH3Cl + Na SO3Na>CH3SO2ONa + NaCl explain the reaction |
|
Answer» When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a CHLORINE atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride ANION (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more STABLE. The reaction is EXTREMELY exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy. |
