Na Cl moecule is bound due to the electreic force between the sodium and the chlorine ions when one electron of sodium and the chlorine ions when one electron of sodium is transferred to chlorine. Taking the separaton between the ions to be `2.75xx10^(-8) cm,` find the force of attraction between them. State the assumptions (if any) that you have made.

Explanation

To find the force of attraction between sodium (Na⁺) and chlorine (Cl⁻) ions in an NaCl molecule, we can use Coulomb's law, which states that the force \( F \) between two point charges is given by:

\[ F = \frac{k \cdot |Q_1 \cdot Q_2|}{R^2} \]

where:
- \( F \) is the force of attraction,
