Is sif4 ionic or molecular?
Molecular because it is between 2 non-metals.
What is the structural formula of a compound?
The structural formula show the spatial aspect of the molecule.
What is the compound SO2 is classified as?
SO2, or sulfur dioxide, is a molecular compound because it contains covalent bonds between non-metals.
Is glucose a compound or a ion?
Glucose (C6H12O6) is a molecular compound. It can't be an ion, since ions are bonds between metals and nonmetals. Carbon is not a metal, neither hydrogen nor oxygen.
Why is KF not a diatomic molecule?
There is a very large difference in electronegativity between K and F, so the compound is ionic rather than molecular.
Describe the differences between molecular formulas and structural formulas for molecular compounds?
A molecular formula lists the numbers of the atoms of a specific element in a compound. A structural formula is a picture of how the atoms in a specific molecule are connected, with each atom represented by its chemical symbol. For example, oxygen's molecular formula is O2. Its structural formula is O-O.
What is the difference between a molecular and a structural formula?
A chemical formula that shows how atoms are arranged within a molecule or polyatomic ion and a molecular formula shows the number of the atoms that makes up the molecule.A molecular formula indicates the numbers and types of elements in one molecule of a substance. A structural formula indicates how the atoms are bonded to one another. Some examples include:water: H2O, H-O-Hcarbon dioxide: CO2, O=C=Ooxygen: O2, O=OIn a structural formula, each line represents a single covalent bond (one pair of shared electrons) between the atoms, and a double line represents a double covalent bond (two pairs of shared electrons) between the atoms.
What is the difference between a monomer and an isomer?
A monomer is a base unit/building block of a polymer (a long-chain unit). For example, the monomers of proteins are amino acids. An isomer is a compound that has the same molecular formula as another compound but a different structural arrangement of the atoms.
Is sif4 ionic or molecular?
Molecular because it is between 2 non-metals.
What is the chemical formula of a molecular compound called?
Molecular compounds are formed between two ionic bonds
The mole establishes a relationship between the?
the molecular mass of a compound and its empirical formula
Why ionic compound do not exist molecular form?
An ionic bond is between a metal and non-metal while a molecular bond is between 2 non-metals.
How are an ionic compound and a molecular covalent compound different?
An ionic compound has an ionic bond (held together by two oppositely charged ions) and is between a metal and a non metal. A molecular compound has covalent bonds , which is when atoms are bound by the sharing of electrons.
Can you see difference between molecular compound from ionic compound with a microscope?
Yes, if the microscope's enlargement ability is adequate, you can see the crystalline structure in ionic compounds unlike in molecular compounds.
IS Cr2O3 molecular or ionic compound?
It is ionic compound as the difference in the electronegativity between chromium and oxygen is more than 1.7
Is an ammonia an molecular or ionic why?
Ammonia is molecular (or covalent) compound because the bond between N and H in ammonia is formed by the sharing of electrons between N and H.
isomers?
Compounds that have the same atoms (molecular formula) but different in the connectivity between the atoms are constitutional (formerly 'structural') isomers.
