Salt is a compound made from sodium (na) and chlorine (cl). salt a. has properties very similar to sodium b. has properties very similar to chlorine c. has very different properties from sodium and chlorine

The correct answer option is C. has very different properties from sodium and chlorine.

Explanation:

We know that salt (chemical name: Sodium Chloride) is made from two elements, Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl). But the properties of the compound of sodium and chlorine has completely different properties than those of its elements: Sodium and Chlorine.

Sodium is quite a low density but highly reactive silvery white metal and Chlorine is a highly reactive greenish yellow gas. While salt (NaCl) is a crystalline material, white in color, which readily dissolves in water and is used as a condiment to add flavor to food.
