chloride
Negative halogen ion
Chloride is a negatively charged ion of chlorine, or a compound containing this ion.
Sodium chloride is table salt; calcium chloride melts ice on roads.
In chemistry and medicine, chloride levels matter for bodily function and water treatment.
The doctor ordered a blood test to check her chloride levels.
