Question #bb1af

Answer 1

The charge on the sodium ion, `Na^(+)` is +1. The charge on the chloride `Cl^-` is -1.

Explanation:

The physical movement of an ion is caused by electrostatic attraction.

Thus, a `Cl^"-"` ion will move towards a positive charge, and an `Na^"+"` ion will move towards a negative charge.
