Which are characteristics of table salt (NaCl)? is insoluble in water
is held together by hydrogen bonds
is often supplemented with iodine
is held together by ionic bonds
is a compound

The correct option (c) "is held together by ionic bonds".

Step-by-step explanation:

Table salt is NaCl. It is a combination of Sodium and Chlorine.

There is 1 valance electron in sodium. Its electronic configuration is 2,8,1

The electronic configuration of Chlorine is 2,8,7. It means that it needs 1 electron so that its octet gets completed.

Na transfers one electron to Cl. It becomes Na⁺. Cl gains one electron From Na. It becomes Cl⁻.

As a resuslt, Na⁺ and Cl⁻ forms. Both Na and Cl are ions. They held together by ionic bonds.
