Sodium and Potassium are both metallic elements in the Alkali metals group. They both react with other elements, such as members of the Halogen group, to form ionic compounds.

No, because they both would be highy unstable if they shared any electrons.

Potassium Iodide is an ionic bond. It is because it contains a metal and a non-metal, potassium and iodine respectively.


Is KI an ionic bond?

Potassium is a metal and iodine is a nonmetal, so yes, it's an ionic bond.


What type of chemical bond does potassium chloride have?

They would form an ionic bond. Potassium would lose 1 electron, which iodine would gain. This metal-nonmetal, give-and-take scenario is what happens in an ionic bond. The compound formed would be called potassium iodide, and its chemical formula is KI.

Is potassium iodine an ionic or covalent bond?

Yes! K's atomic number is 19 and wants to become more stable if it was 18 so it wants to give up an electron so it is K+. CL's atomic number is 17 and would become more stable if it were 18 so it wants to gain an electron so it can be CL-. K and CL are now ions hence Ionic Bond.
