What metal is a compound?
A metal is a chemical element not a compound.
Salt is a element?
No, it is not. Salt is an ionic compound made by a metal cation (Positively charge ion) and a non-metal anion (Negatively charged ion). There many types of salts like carbonates, chlorides, etc. An example for salt would be NaCl which is the common salt we use. This is a compound (an Ionic compound to be more specific) because, there are two elements which make up the substance. And Na (Sodium) has a positive charge and Cl (Chlorine) has a negative charge.
Is benzene a metal non-metal or metalloid?
Neither. Benzene is a compound. It is considered to be an aromatic compound.
What is the charge of cyclohexane?
Cyclohexane has no charge. It is a compound, not an ion.
How many valence electrons does an alkali metal have?
All alkali metals have 1 valence electron that is it loses when forming compound, giving it a charge of +1
What charge does the atom have when a metal and a nonmetal meet?
it forms an ionic compound
Is MgF an ionic compound or a covalent compound?
MgF2 Magnesium, an alkaline earth metal of 2+ ionic charge and two fluorine, a nonmetal, atoms of 1- charge each form a ionic bond
What is the overall charge of an ionic compound?
it is always equal to zero.The overall charge of a formula unit for an ionic compound is zero. The numbers of positive and negative ions are such that the sum of the positive charges and the negative charges is zero.
Is BaI2 an ionice compound?
Yes. An Ionic compound is a compoud composed of a metal and a non metal. Ba is the metal and I is the non-metal. It's written form is Barium Iodide. You are not required to specify the roman numeral because Barium has a non-varying charge (2-).
What metal is a compound?
A metal is a chemical element not a compound.
Is magnesium a metal or compound?
Magnesium is not a heavy metal.
Is titanium dioxide a type III binary compound?
A binary compound consists of two elements. A Type III binary compound consists of two nonmetal elements. Titanium dioxide consists of one metal and one nonmetal. Since titanium is a metal with a variable charge, titanium dioxide would be a Type II compound.
Is CaCl an ionic compound?
CaCl is an ionic compound. Calcium is a metal, and chlorine is a non-metal. When combined, a metal and a non-metal form an ionic compound.
Is the sodium chloride is a metal or non metal?
It is a non metal. It is an ionic compound.
What compound do the sodium and sulfur ion make?
The sodium and sulfur elements make the compound of sodium sulfide or Na(2)S. *(2)=subscript 2 The reason for this is because this is an example of an ionic bond (or a bond between a metal and a non-metal) in this case the Sodium is a metal and the sulfur is a non-metal. Since sodium has a charge of +1 and sulfur has a charge of -2 there has to be 2 sodium and one sulfur, thus making the charges of the two elements cancel out.
Is sodium chloride an ionic compound or binary ionic compound?
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound ( a compound between a metal and a non-metal) It is also a binary compound as it contains two elements. So it can be described as an ionic compound or more precisely as a binary ionic compound. A binary compound is one that contains exactly two elements. Binary compounds may be ionic or covalent.
Why isn't there an charge when an ionic compound forms?
compounds are formed when two ions (charged atoms) bond, in this case ionically. an ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non metal, and those atoms will form cations (positive ions) and anions (negative ions) -respectively. when a positive and a negative join together, they will cancel out, therefore creating no charge on your ionic compound.
