Gold is a metal and so its bonding is via 'Sea of Electrons'.
This is not perfectly ionic nor perfectly covalent. Rather, the valence electrons are delocalised and moving within atomic orbitals of all immediate neighbouring atoms...

Fes2 ionic or covalent?
Iron(III) chloride is an ionic compound.
What is the formula for the ionic compound gold III nitrate?
Gold (III) nitrate has the formula Au(NO3)3.
Is iron (III) sulfate ionic or covalent?
Electronegativity Fe = 1.83; O = 3.44 3.44 - 1.83 = 1.61 Since the electronegativity difference is 1.61 the bond is polar covalent 0 - 0.4 = Pure Covalent Bond 0.41 - 1.7 = Polar Covalent Bond 1.7 + = Ionic Bond
Will gold react with hydrogen sulfate?
There are two sulphides of gold - Gold(I) sulfide (Au2S) and gold(III) sulfide, (Au2S3). Gold sulphides can be prepared treating gold chloride with hydrogen sulfide or by treating dicyanoaurate: in the reaction H2S + 2 KAu(CN)2 → Au2S + 2 KCN + 2 HCN
What is the name of the ionic compound Au3P?
The systematic name of this compound is Gold(III) Phosphate.
What is the name of the ionic compound Cr2S3?
Cr2S3 can be broken down. You know that when combined, the charges will flip and go to subscript. That means that it broken down, it is Cr^3 x S^2. Cr^3 is the transition metal, Chromium III. The S stand for Sulfur. So the answer is Chromium (III) Sulfide
What is the formula for aurous sulfide?
The chemical formula of gold(III) sulfide is Au2S3.
What does SbBr3 stand for and is it covalent or ionic?
SbBr3 is Antimony (III) Bromide. It is an ionic compound.
Fes2 ionic or covalent?
Iron(III) chloride is an ionic compound.
Is CBr4 ionic or molecular?
Iron(III) bromide is an ionic compound.
What is the formula for the ionic compound gold III nitrate?
Gold (III) nitrate has the formula Au(NO3)3.
Is iron (III) sulfate ionic or covalent?
Electronegativity Fe = 1.83; O = 3.44 3.44 - 1.83 = 1.61 Since the electronegativity difference is 1.61 the bond is polar covalent 0 - 0.4 = Pure Covalent Bond 0.41 - 1.7 = Polar Covalent Bond 1.7 + = Ionic Bond
What is the name for Ga2S?
This is gallium(I) SULFIDE. It is a type II binary ionic compound meaning it contains transition metal and non-metal ions.
Will gold react with hydrogen sulfate?
There are two sulphides of gold - Gold(I) sulfide (Au2S) and gold(III) sulfide, (Au2S3). Gold sulphides can be prepared treating gold chloride with hydrogen sulfide or by treating dicyanoaurate: in the reaction H2S + 2 KAu(CN)2 → Au2S + 2 KCN + 2 HCN
What is the name of Fe2 SO4 3?
Iron (III) Sulfide Ferrous Sulfide
Will cobalt III bromide and potassium sulfide give a precipitate?
Yes. It will form cobalt (III) sulfide.
What is the name of the ionic compound Au3P?
The systematic name of this compound is Gold(III) Phosphate.
