No
False, all compounds are electrically neutral.
hey i am in chem. now and this is a question on my worksheet my notes said that compound composed of 2 different element the total charge ot the cations = total charge of anions so if it helps i put yes they are always ionic but i gused so good luck to you
Non-binary or polyatomic compounds are covalently bonded atoms with a net charge.
yes each have a charge of 1.
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound ( a compound between a metal and a non-metal) It is also a binary compound as it contains two elements. So it can be described as an ionic compound or more precisely as a binary ionic compound. A binary compound is one that contains exactly two elements. Binary compounds may be ionic or covalent.
No. Not all binary compounds are ionic and not all ionic compounds are binary. An ionic compound is a compound formed by the exchange rather than the sharing of electrons. A binary compound is any compound of exactly 2 elements. Examples: Sodium chloride (NaCl, compound sodium and chlorine) is both binary and ionic. Potassium hydroxide (KOH, compound of potassium, hydrogen, and oxygen) is ionic but not binary. Water (H2O, compound of hydrogen and oxygen) is binary, but covalent, not ionic.
A binary compound consists of two elements. A Type III binary compound consists of two nonmetal elements. Titanium dioxide consists of one metal and one nonmetal. Since titanium is a metal with a variable charge, titanium dioxide would be a Type II compound.
Type one binary compounds have a cation (+ charge) that has only 1 possible oxidation state, for example sodium (Na^1+). In type 2 binary compounds, the cation can have more than one oxidation state, for example iron which can be 2+ or 3+.
There are lots and lots of them! Anything that only contains two elements is called a binary compound.See the Web Links to the left for more information about them!
Mg as an element is zero oxygen as an element is likewise zero Mg as an ion +2 Oxgen as an ion -2 MgO compound net zero
The charge on individual ions when they form compounds is decreased or increased depending on if the ion needed or had too many electrons. I think....think that is the answer, so, get back to your textbook :)
Take into account that oxygen has a negative 2 charge (O-2) and there are 3 of them; therefore, to form this compound Cobalt must have a positive 3 charge (Co3+) because there are 2 of them. The name of this compound is Cobalt (III) oxide or Cobaltic oxide.
