Why elements and all compound exist as molecules?

All elements and all compounds do not exist as molecules. As examples, noble gases exist as individulal atoms and ionic compounds form lattices.


How can molecular compounds be distinguished from ionic compounds?

Many ionic compounds exist as crystals but covalent compounds as molecules (there are exceptions as diamond though). Ionic compounds would be good electrical conductors unlike molecular compounds.


What evidence is there ionic compounds exists as ions in their pure state while molecular compounds exist as molecules in their pure state?

How do ionic bonds and ionic compounds differ from covenant bonds and molecules?

Ionic bonds is the attracting between opposing forces (positive and negative) while covalent bonds are atoms sharing electrons to get an inert gas configuration (8 electrons in valence shell). Covalent bonds exist as discrete molecules while ionic compounds do not exist as discrete molecules and form large crystal lattices.


What alkali metal is diatomic?

No metals form molecules; they only exist as ionic compounds or metallic elements or alloys.

Yes. The ionic compounds make ions


What is the difference between ionic and molecular compound?

Ionic compounds contain ionic compounds whereas molecular compounds contain covalent bonds in their molecules.


Are all compounds composed of molecule's?

some compounds are composed of molecules bound by ionic compounds so no


What is the difference between and ionic and covalent bond?

Compounds with covalent bonds form molecules. Compounds with ionic bonds form ionic lattices.


Why ionic bonded molecules disassociate in water?

No. There is no such thing as an "ionic bonded molecule," as molecules, by definition, are helld together by covalent bonds. Ionic compounds are not molecular. Some ionic compounds disassociated in water while others do not.
