What else can I help you with?
Where are the most reactive non metals?
The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
What do metals do when they combine with non metals like oxygen?
Metals tend to lose electrons when they combine with non-metals like oxygen, forming positive ions. These positive ions then combine with the negative ions of non-metals like oxygen to form compounds, such as metal oxides.
What type of atoms combine to form a ionic bond?
Metals and non-metals
What are formed when non metals combine with oxygen?
Oxides are formed when nonmetals combine with oxygen.
What columns on the periodic table would combine well in order for both to be more stable?
Metals and non-metals combine. They form ionic bonds.
What can a metal and a nonmetal combined make?
Metals and non-metals combine through a sort of extreme electron sharing called ionic bonding. In ionic bonds, the metal atom is said to lose one or more of its electrons and give it to the nonmetal.
How do you know if an element is an ion?
When metals combine with non-metals you normally get an ionic compound. So, sodium chloride is ionic. When non-metals combine with other non-metals you get a covalent type of compound, so water is covalent. If you really want to distinguish between the two you need to become familiar with the Periodic Table of Elements.
Will californium be combine with other elements?
Californium can react with the majority of non metals.
What elements mix together to form alloy?
Two or more types of metals or non metals combine to form an alloy.
When elements combine they form what compounds?
If the elements are both non-metals, they form a molecular compound. If they are both metals, they form a metallic bonds. If they are a metal and a non-metal they form ionic bonds (salts). (Ammonium salts are non-metals.)
Does selenium combine with any elements?
Yes, selenium can combine with elements such as oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur, and metals to form a variety of compounds. It can form selenides with metals and oxides with non-metals. These compounds have a wide range of applications in medicine, industry, and research.
What type of bond does Cl and Cl have?
Cl and F form ionic bond when they combine with metals and form covalent bond when combined with non-metals.
