What else can I help you with?
what usually happens when a metal reacts with a nonmetal?
electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions resulting in an ionic compound
How many non metal atoms are in pbcl4?
In the chemical formula PbCl₄ (lead(IV) chloride), there are four chlorine (Cl) atoms, which are non-metal atoms. Therefore, there are a total of four non-metal atoms in PbCl₄.
Are small atoms more likely to be metal or non metal?
metal
What consists of two non metal atoms?
Covalent bonds may contain two non metal atoms. Example is CH4.
A non-metal bonding to a non- metal makes what charge?
it depends on the valency of the atoms
Does carbon dioxide only contain non metal atoms?
yes both the carbon and oxygen are non metal atoms but beside this carbodioxide is lethal
Are molecules made up of metal or non metal atoms or both?
Molecules can be made up of both metal and non-metal atoms, depending on the type of compound. For example, ionic compounds such as sodium chloride (NaCl) consist of a metal atom (sodium) and a non-metal atom (chlorine), while covalent compounds like water (H2O) can consist of non-metal atoms only.
Is CBr4 metal or non-metal?
Yes
What type of atoms does an ionic bond occurs between?
A metal and a non-metal
In ionic bonds what happens to the electrons?
The electrons are shared between the atoms. An ionic bond occurs between a metal and a non-metal. The metal donates one or more electrons to the non-metal, causing the metal to have a positive charge. When the non-metal accepts the electrons, it becomes negatively charged, thus resulting in an attraction between the two charged ions, and forming a bond.
What happens when a metal atom 'meets' a nonmetal atom?
When metals and non-metals come in contact with one another -metal atoms lose electrons to form positively charged ionsnon-metal atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged ions
How many non metal atoms are in Cu2O?
In Cu2O, there are 2 copper atoms, which are metals, and 1 oxygen atom, which is a non-metal. So, there is 1 non-metal atom (oxygen) in Cu2O.
