the elements which the ionic compound is constituted of
An ionic compound is a type of chemical compound. Chemical compounds can be classified into different categories based on their composition and properties, with ionic compounds being one of these categories.
No, ionic compounds are hard.
most ionic compounds are salt
Many ionic compounds do NOT dissolve in water- such as calcium carbonate. The majority do and that is because the solvation of the ions is energetically favourable in those compounds.
No, Ionic compounds are named using the names of the individual ions that make up the compound. Numerical prefixes are used in naming molecular covalent compounds.
Salts are ionic compounds.
ionic compounds are polar compounds because they have charge separation between them
Polar solvents such as water, alcohols, and acetone are best for dissolving ionic compounds because they have the ability to break apart the strong ionic bonds in the compound due to their positive and negative charges. This allows the individual ions to be surrounded and solvated by the solvent molecules, leading to the dissolution of the ionic compound.
Ammonia is a molecular compound. It consists of individual molecules made up of covalently bonded atoms (one nitrogen and three hydrogen). It does not contain ions like in ionic compounds.
No, a brittle compound does not necessarily indicate it is a molecular compound. Brittle compounds can be either molecular or ionic, depending on their chemical bonding. Brittle molecular compounds typically have covalent bonds, while brittle ionic compounds have ionic bonds.
A telephone receiver is not a compound itself, but the materials used to make it can be either ionic or covalent compounds. The components of a telephone receiver, such as plastics and metals, are typically made of covalent compounds.
This is an ionic compound, for example a salt as potassium chloride.
