What else can I help you with?
Is S and O ionic or covalent?
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
Is salt always a ionic compound?
No, salt is not always an ionic compound. It can be an ionic compound, like sodium chloride (NaCl), but it can also be a covalent compound, like sodium acetate (CH3COONa). The classification of salt as ionic or covalent depends on the elements involved and their bonding.
Is table salt a covalent or ionic bond?
NaCl is a ionic because here transfer of electron takes place
Why you make sodium extract?
This a part of experiment to check the different element in an organic compound ,the element which has to be detected is covalently linked with carbon to convert the covalent bond into ionic bond sodium is heated with organic compound.
Do organic molecules form ionic or covalent bonds?
They form both. For example, the standard alkyls, alcohols, acids, amines, aminos, etc. form covalent bonds, but organometallic compounds, salts of acids and amines, and similar compounds form ionic (although still using covalent bonding for part of thir structure).
What makes an atom become part of a molecule?
Ionic and covalent bonding
What forces hold atoms together to form molecules?
Ionic Bond, Covalent Bond, and Hydrogen Bonding Ionic Bond- An atom that has either a positive or negative charge is known as an ION. Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons. Covalent Bond - Two atoms that are sharing a pair of electrons are connected by a covalent bond. A covalent bond is much stronger than an ionic bond. Hydrogen Bond- When the negatively charge atom is already taking part in a different covalent bond, the interaction between it and the hydrogen atom is called a hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonding between different parts of a very large molecule hold it in a particular shape. Hydrogen bonds hold the two nucleotide strands of large DNA molecules together, for example.
What part of a sodium atom is transferred when an ionic bond is formed whit other atom?
When a sodium atom forms an ionic bond with another atom, the outermost electron in the sodium atom is transferred to the other atom. This electron transfer results in the formation of a positively charged sodium ion (Na+) and a negatively charged ion of the other atom.
Hydrogen and oxygen are what type of bonds?
Polar Covalent Bond. This is when a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms in a molecule but the electrons are not equally shared. Because the Oxygen atom has a stronger pull on the electrons than the Hydrogen, the electrons will be more drawn to the Oxygen atom.
What happens to neutrons after a covalent bond?
Nothing - neutrons take no part in bonding.
Do nonmetals have covalent bonding?
Metals donot form covalent bonds . Metalloids form covalent bonds. The members of 4A group are known as Metalloids... They have 4 electrons in their outer most shells. they cannot take part in ionic bond because they cannot gain four electrons from any element . So they form covalent bonds with each other or with non metals.
Why is calcium oxide an ionic bond?
Calcium hydroxide has groups of covalently bonded atoms that have either lost or gained electrons. It is an ion made up of two or more atoms that are covalently bonded and that act like a single ion. ~Ayanna~ Your answer doesn't answer the question. ****************** This answer will: The covalent part is between the O-H of the hydroxide. In this instance, O and H always bond covalently. Calcium's bond with the OH, which is a separate subject, is ionic, as in Ca ++ : (OH -) x 2 Almost all compounds involving metals are ionic, so this is typical. That should clear it up
