yes, the bond between ammonium ion and and any anion is ionic in nature but within ammonium ion nitrogen forms three covalent and one coordinate covalent bond with hydrogen atoms, therefore ammonium salts have all three types of bonds.

What are salts of weak acid and weak base?
Salts of weak acids and bases are the ionic compounds formed by the reaction between a weak base and a weak acid. For example, if acetic acid was to react with ammonium, the salt ammonium acetate would form.
Is ammonium a ionic?
ammonium compounds are ionic compounds but with in ammonium ion three hydrogens form covalent bonds while 4th forms coordinate covalent bond.
Is ammonium ion a covalent or ionic bond?
The ammonium ions itself is held together by covalent bonds, but it will form ionic bonds with negative ions.
Is ammonium fluoride is ionic or polar covalent bond?
NH4 + and F - Form the ionic bond, NH4F ------
Will the base NH3 base react with an acid?
Yes it can react to form Ammonium salts
What group of elements with matals to from salts?
Metals and ammonium form generally salts.
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.)
What are salts of weak acid and weak base?
Salts of weak acids and bases are the ionic compounds formed by the reaction between a weak base and a weak acid. For example, if acetic acid was to react with ammonium, the salt ammonium acetate would form.
What form salts?
sodium and chlorine react to form a ionic bond that we call salt p.s. this was written by a 9 year old jk a 13 year old
Is ammonium a ionic?
ammonium compounds are ionic compounds but with in ammonium ion three hydrogens form covalent bonds while 4th forms coordinate covalent bond.
What kinds of bonds does mercury form ionic covalent etc?
Mercury form ionic salts.
Is ammonium ion a covalent or ionic bond?
The ammonium ions itself is held together by covalent bonds, but it will form ionic bonds with negative ions.
Why is a complex acid an agent of precipitation?
they form insoluble quaternary ammonium salts
Is ammonium fluoride is ionic or polar covalent bond?
NH4 + and F - Form the ionic bond, NH4F ------
Will the base NH3 base react with an acid?
Yes it can react to form Ammonium salts
Will Ammonium hydroxide and Hydrochloric acid form a precipitate?
No, they will not. Because the salt formed is Ammonium chloride, which is highly soluble in water. Only insoluble salts form a precipitate.
Is NH42SO4 ionic?
These species are both polyatomic ions. NH4 + (ammonium ) and SO4 2- ( sulfate ) combine with opposite charges to form (NH4)2SO4 which is ammonium sulfate a polyatomic ionic bonding.
