The usual table salt, sodium chloride, is definitely ionic, since it has one of the more electropositive elements with one of the more electronegative elements. In chemistry, salt refers to many compounds, but they have some similar traits.

Is tooth paste a ionic or covalent bond?
Toothpaste is not a pure substance but is mixture of many ingredients some contain covalent bonds some ionic.
Is CS2 a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?
Covalent compound
Is KF a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?
K is an element. It is elemental Potassium metal.
Is methane an ionic or covalent bond?
Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Methane is a hydrocarbon (CH4. Therefore it is COVALENTLY bonded because of the bonds between carbon (non-metal) and hydrogen (non-metal). Ionic compounds only apply to those made of metals and non-metals.
Which is stronger ionic or covalent?
Covalent bonds are the strongest in an aqueous solution.
Is tooth paste a ionic or covalent bond?
Toothpaste is not a pure substance but is mixture of many ingredients some contain covalent bonds some ionic.
When two or more elements are joined by chemical bonds to form a new pure substance what do you call that new substance?
A compound. A compound can be covalent or ionic depending on which elements are bonding.
Is CS2 a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?
Covalent compound
Is KF a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?
K is an element. It is elemental Potassium metal.
Is Na2S a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?

What ionic compound is formed when hydrogen and chlorine combine?
The compound formed when hydrogen and chlorine combine is hydrogen chloride, with formula HCl. In pure form, this compound has highly polar covalent bonds, but when dissolved in water, the compound ionizes.

Is ammonium chloride a pure element?
no, it's an ionic compound.
A compound is either what or ionic in nature?
A compound is either Molecular or Ionic in nature.
Is magnesium hydroxide an ionic or molecular compound?
Pure ionic in Mg(OH)2 = Mg2+ and 2 OH-
Is LiOH and molecular or ionic compound?
this is an ionic compound because it involves a reaction between metals and non-metals. The most important thing here is that there is ions involved. The OH- ion hints that this is going to be an ionic equation because it contains a polyatomic ion which only occur in ionic equations. And then we look at the other side, which is Lithium, which we know to be an alkali metal. Since one side of the compound is a metal, and the other side is a polyatomic ion (multiple non-metals put together in order to form an ion that can be involved in an ionic compound) this compound can be called IONIC.
