Mg3P2 is ionic. the rest are covalent
CH4 (methane) is not likely to have ionic bonds. This compound is composed of covalent bonds between carbon and hydrogen atoms. The other compounds listed contain ions and are more likely to have ionic bonds.
CH4 (methane) is a covalent compound.
NaH and IBr3 are ionic compounds. NaH is composed of a metal (Na) and a nonmetal (H), creating an ionic bond. IBr3 is also an ionic compound as it contains a metal (I) and a nonmetal (Br) forming an ionic bond. Ph3 and CH4 are covalent compounds as they involve sharing of electrons between nonmetal atoms.
Methane is a covalent compound.
Ionic compounds: NaCl, KOH, CuSO4, etc. Any compound containing a metal and a non-metal. In ionic compounds, metals have positive ions (they lose electrons to the non metal) and non-metals have negative ions (as they gain electrons from the metal) Covalent compounds: CH4, BF3, NH3, all hydrocarbons/ all compounds containing only non-metals.
Methane (CH4) will not have ionic bonds. It is a covalently bonded compound where electrons are shared between atoms, unlike in ionic compounds where electrons are transferred.
No it is not. In fact, CH4, also known as methane, is a covalent compound.
The name of the covalent compound CH4 is methane.
5 atoms, 1 compound.
As carbon and hydrogen are both nonmetals, it is covalent.
A molecule of CH4, which is methane, is covalent. In methane, carbon shares electrons with four hydrogen atoms to form covalent bonds, where the atoms share electrons to achieve stability. Ionic compounds involve transfer of electrons between atoms of different elements to form charged ions.
H2O. Due to difference in electronegativity. O2 is covalent, NaCl and KI are ionic, CH4 is usually considered to be simply covalent as the electronegatiicty difference is small.
