What is an ionic compounds found in human body?
Provide one important example (in the human body) of a. a molecule containing ionic bonds. b. a molecule containing covalent bonds. c. a molecule containing hydrogen bonds.
How common is ionic bonding in the body?
Being comprised mostly of water, the human body would probably not contain many undissolved ionic compounds. Ionic bonds, such as those in NaCl, would be broken by water molecules, creating aqueous solutions in blood, sweat, etc. In other words, yes, there are ionic bonds, but most of them just get broken.
What is covalent compounds used for?
Organic compounds have covalent bonds, and these compounds are the basis of life on Earth; the human body is composed of them.
Why are there very few ionic compounds in living systems?
because living bodies contain water and most of the ionic compounds are soluble in water and are secreted in urine but some are always kept in body for working of the brain and other organs.
What function does a polar nature of water provide in the human body?
I think it dissolves ionic salts
What are some of the ionic compounds found in the human body?
No

Why does the human body take in compounds?
We need compounds for our body to process properly. That is exactly why we need compounds. I hope this answer helps you. :)
