What is the formula for beryllium thiocyantate?
Beryllium in ionic form has a charge of +2. Thiocyanate is a polyatomic ion with a charge of -1. Since ionic compounds like beryllium thiocyanate are neutral, the positively charged ions (cations) and the negatively charged ions (anions) must balance---two -1 anions to balance out the +2 cation. Be2+ + 2 SCN- ---> Be(SCN)2
Why is Beryllium chloride is a poor electrical conductor when molten while the next Group 2 chloride magnesium chloride is a good electrical conductor when molten?
Beryllium has a higher charge density and polarising power due to its relatively small ionic radius as compared to Magnesium. As such, the electron cloud of Chlorine is distorted and there is a high degree of covalent character in the ionic bond as compared to Magnesium Chloride. This means that there are hardly any free delocalised electrons in Beryllium Chloride to act as mobile charge carriers when molten, and hence the poor electrical conductivity.
What will happen if an electron is brought near an alpha particle?
The alpha particle will grab the electron, making it a part of its electron cloud.? As a result, the helium atom (which is what an alpha particle is) transitions from a +2 charge to a +1 charge.?A second electron will bring the helium atom to neutral, non-ionic, charge.

Is beryllium perchlorate ionic or covalent?
Covalent
When beryllium loses electrons to fluorine what is the process called?
Wouldn't it be the formation of an ionic compound, BeF2. Because fluorine needs to gain one electron to become stable like the noble gases. In turn, beryllium needs to lose two electrons to become stable. So, two fluorine atoms react with one beryllium atom. The two fluorines are called anions (ions with (-) charge) and the beryllium is a 2+ cation (or ion with (+) charge). Then, to cancel out the charges, they bond together to form what is known as an ionic compound.
Explain why beryliumm loses electron when forming ionic bonds while sulfur gains electorns?
Beryllium is a metal and while Sulphur is a non-metal. Hence when forming an ionic bond, Beryllium being a metal looses the electron and sulphur being a non-metal gains the electrons.
What is the ionic compound for beryllium oxide?
Beryllium oxide, BeO, not ionic
What is the ionic compound of beryllium and chlorine?
We know that the alkaline earth metal beryllium (Be) and the halogen chlorine (Cl) form the ionic compound beryllium chloride (BeCl2). The equation might look like this:Be + Cl2 => BeCl2
A user is constructing an ionic bond between beryllium and chlorine and has reached the stage below What should the user do next?
A-transfer an electron from the beryllium atom to the chlorine atom B-tranfer an electron from the chlorine atom to the beryllium atom C-add another beryllium atom D-add another chlorine atom The answer is D. :) Good luck!!

What is a common ionic charge for caesium?
Cesium loses just one electron to form Cs+
Does beryllium nitride have covalent bond?
Beryllium nitride has an ionic bond.
What is ionic compound BeS?
Beryllium (II) sulfide.
What is the name of an atom that loses an electron?
== == == == The answer is an ionic atom.== ==when it gains an electron, it acquires partial negative charge and it's at.weight increaseswhen it looses electron; it acquires partial positive charge and at.weight decreases
Why beryllium can polarise any anion that it is bonded to?
This is largely due to the small ionic radius and divalent charge of a beryllium cation. This combination gives it the strongest electric field at its surface of any metal cation.
