Is flouride a metal or non metal?
Fluoride is an ion formed by the nonmetal fluorine.
How are the salts named?
Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal are named this way: [metal] [nonmetal root]-ide Examples: sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride potassium + iodine = potassium iodide Salts made from a metal or other complex cation and a nonmetal or other complex anion are named based on the cation and anion names: ------------------------------- ammonium ion + hydroxide ion = ammonium hydroxide sodium ion + hypochlorite ion = sodium hypochlorite calcium ion + chloride ion = calcium chloride
When one metal ion shares electrons with other metal ion what is it?
Part of a metallically bonded substance.
C2H4 is it molecular or ionic?
No, this molecule is not ionic. It is composed of all non metal atoms. In order to be ionic, the compound should consist of the following combinations: metal + nonmetal, or metal + polyatomic ion, or 2 polyatomic ions together.
How do you know if an ionic compound between an alkali metal with a nonmetal is done correctly?
Since all alkali metals form a 1+ ion, the number of alkali metal atoms in the formula should be equal to the charge on the negative ion.
Is sulphate a nonmetal?
Sulfate is a negative ion composed of the nonmetals sulfur and oxygen bus is itself not a metal or a nonmetal. The sulfate ion does not exist as a substance on its own. Its charge must be balanced by a positive ion the identity of that ion is variable.
Is Acetate a metal or non-metal?
Acetate is not any single substance, but a group or ion found in certain esters and salts. It is composed of the nonmetals hydrogen, oxygen and carbon. Because it is not an element it cannot properly be considered a metal or a nonmetal.
Is hydroxide metal or nonmetal?
Neither. Hydroxide is a polyatomic ion, not an element or even a substance. Only elements can be regarded as metal or nonmetals.
What substance is composed of a metal plus a hydroxide?
A base (also called an alkali) is a substance that consists of a metal ion combined with a hydroxide ion. Examples are sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.
Does salt contain a metal and a nonmetal?
Yes. Salt contains a metal ion and a nonmetal ion bonded together by an ionic bond.
Iodide is it metal nonmetal or mettaloid?
It is an Ion
Is phosphorus a metal or nonmetal?
Phosphorus is a nonmetal, because it does not form any monatomic positive ion.
Is iodine a metal or non-metal and what ion does it form?
Iodine is a nonmetal and it forms the iodide ion, I-.
Is chloride a metal or nonmetal?
Chloride is a term used for salts. Chlorine is a chemical element, nonmetallic.
What makes up a iconic compound?
Ionic compounds are often composed of a metal and a nonmetal chemically bonded by an ionic bond. Ionic compounds can also be composed of polyatomic ions, which are molecules that have either gained or lost one or more electrons. Sodium chloride, NaCl, is an ionic compound composed of the metal sodium and the nonmetal chlorine. Ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3 is an ionic compound composed of the polyatomic ammonium ion, NH4+ and the polyatomic nitrate ion, NO3-.
Is flouride a metal or non metal?
Fluoride is an ion formed by the nonmetal fluorine.
Is bromide a metal?
No, bromide is an ion formed by the nonmetal bromine.
