Which formula represents an ionic compound?
A) H20
B). KCI
C) CO2
D) CHE

 B) KCl

Explanation: Potassium chloride, KCl , is an ionic compound formed by the electrostatic force of attraction that holds the potassium cations and the chlorine anions together. Potassium, K , is located in group 1 of the Periodic Table.

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.
