When an elemental metal combines with an elemental nonmetal it forms?
binary ionic compound
Is Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal?
Salts are made of metal ions and nonmetal ions.
What is the composition and structure of selenium?
Selenium is a nonmetal element that belongs to the oxygen group of the periodic table. Its atomic number is 34, and it has multiple allotropes with different physical and chemical properties. Selenium exists in various forms, including elemental selenium, selenide ions, selenite ions, and selenate ions.
How are metals named an ionic compound Nonmetals Polyatomic ions?
Metals in ionic compounds are named by using the metal's elemental name followed by the nonmetal's name with an "-ide" ending (e.g. sodium chloride). Nonmetals in ionic compounds use the nonmetal's elemental name followed by the metal's name with an "-ide" ending (e.g. oxygen and magnesium make magnesium oxide). Polyatomic ions maintain their specific names in ionic compounds (e.g. sulfate, nitrate, carbonate).
Which substance has a chemical formula with the same ratio of metal ions to nonmetal ions as in potassium sulfide?
lithium, sodium, caesium, rubidium sulphides: Me2S.
Is a base a compound that forms metal and nonmetal ions when it dissolves in water?
No, a base is a substance that raises pH when added to water. While some bases do indeed release metal and nonmetal ions, many do not, and many that release metal/nonmetal ions are not bases.
Is negative ions metal or nonmetal?
Negative ions can be formed from both metals and nonmetals. When a metal loses electrons, it becomes a positively charged cation, while when a nonmetal gains electrons, it becomes a negatively charged anion.
Does a nonmetal form negative ions?
most do, but noble gases don't
What kind of reaction is represented metal oxide plus nonmetal oxide plus ternary salt?
The reaction is likely a double displacement reaction, where the metal ions from the metal oxide and the nonmetal ions from the nonmetal oxide switch partners to form new compounds. The ternary salt may also participate in exchanging ions with the other compounds.
What is the basic rule for predicting how the ions of a metal and a nonmetal will react to form a compound?
The basic rule is that metals tend to lose electrons to form positively charged ions (cations), while nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form negatively charged ions (anions). When a metal and a nonmetal react, the metal will typically donate electrons to the nonmetal, resulting in the formation of an ionic compound with a metal cation and a nonmetal anion.
What type of bonds are formed when metal atoms combine with nonmetal Atoms?
Ionic bonds are formed when metal atoms combine with nonmetal atoms. Metal atoms tend to lose electrons to form positive ions, while nonmetal atoms tend to gain electrons to form negative ions, resulting in the attraction between the oppositely charged ions forming the ionic bond.
What kind of bond would a metal and a non metal typically make?
A metal and a nonmetal typically form an ionic bond. The metal atom donates electrons to the nonmetal atom, resulting in the formation of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged nonmetal ions that are held together by electrostatic attraction.
