Is the composition of an ionic compound formed by two or more nonmetallic elements?

Ionic compounds do not form between nonmetallic elements. Nonmetallic elements form covalent bonds, and form molecular compounds. Ionic compounds are generally formed by metals and nonmetals.


When are IONIC compounds are formed?

ionic compounds are formed by the complete transfer of electrons. If the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is above 1.7, then ionic bond is formed between the two atoms.


Why does chemical formula help identify whether a substance is ionic or covalent?

Generally compounds formed between nonmetals are covalent.


Can the term molecule be applied to both an ionic and a covalent bond?

No. Molecules are formed from covalent bonds, usually between nonmetals. Ionic compounds are formed by ionic bonds from the electrostatic attraction of positively and negatively charged ions, generally between metals and nonmetals.


How do you know if the the chemical formula helps in identifying whether a substance is ionic or covalent?

Generally compounds formed between nonmetals are covalent.


Write down the differences between ionic compound from covalent compounds?

Ionic Compounds are formed by complete transfer of electrons while Covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons. Ionic compounds have higher melting points while covalent compounds have lower.


Ionic bonds are generally found in inorganic compounds?

Inorganic compounds lack carbon. Generally metals and non-metals have ionic bonds. For example elementary salts such as table salt (NaCl) or sodium chloride are classic examples of such inorganic ionic bonds. Organic compounds, on the other hand, are most often covalently bonded.
