Lithium acetate (CH3COOLi) is an ionic compound.
In lithium acetate, there are ionic bonds between positive lithium ions and negative acetate ions, and within the acetate ions themselves, there are covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen and hydrogen.
LiC2H3O2 is a covalent bond. The compound lithium acetate consists of covalent bonds between lithium and the acetate ion, which itself has covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen atoms.
Zinc acetate is an ionic compound. It is formed from the ionic bond between zinc cations (Zn2+) and acetate anions (CH3COO-).
Ammonium acetate is an ionic compound. It is formed from the ionic bond between the positively charged NH4+ ion (ammonium) and the negatively charged CH3COO- ion (acetate).
Lithium chloride (as NaCl) is an ionic compound.
of course it is ionic what else could it be?
No, lithium forms ionic bonds rather than covalent bonds. It donates an electron to create a stable cation with a full outer electron shell, making it an ionic compound. Therefore, lithium is not classified as a nonpolar covalent compound.
LiCH3COO contains both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between lithium (Li) and acetate ion (CH3COO) is ionic, while the bonds within the acetate ion itself (between carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms) are covalent.
No, lithium hydride does not have a covalent bond. It is an ionic compound where lithium donates its electron to hydrogen, resulting in the formation of Li+ and H- ions, which are held together by ionic bonds.
LiC2H3O2 is an ionic compound. It contains lithium (Li) which is a metal, and acetate (C2H3O2) which is a polyatomic ion with a negative charge. Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons between a metal and a non-metal or polyatomic ion.
Sodium acetate is an ionic compound. It is composed of sodium ions (Na+) and acetate ions (CH3COO-) held together by ionic bonds resulting from the transfer of electrons between the atoms.
