Commom salt consists chlorine and sodium ions:each sodium atom has lostone electron and each chlorine atom has gained one electron. In a crystal of salt the separation of two such ions is 2.8x10^-10 m
a) show that the force between a sodium ion and a chlorine ion is about
3x10^-9N
b) Does the force in part(a) represent the net force acting on each ion?Give reason
take electronic charge=1.6x10^-19
