Right, and that's the form it's in in both NaCl and KCl
Correct and that was the supposed joke. Instead of chloride, the anion, which would occur in some form of a salt, the container would contain half NaCl and the other half just chlorine gas, Cl2. Thereby making the statement (50% less sodium) technically true. (Disregard the pressure you would need to put the same molar amount of gas into the volume of a solid)
I'm proud to report that my chemistry is just barely good enough to follow this comment. 😂
