Best Answer

could be either ionic bonds or covalent bonds depending on the difference in the electronegativities between the two atoms forming bond.

The most prevalent type of bond in inorganic chemistry is the ionic bond. This bond forms between oppositely charged ions, where one atom donates electrons to another. It is commonly observed in compounds composed of metal and non-metal elements.

What is the most common bond in inorganic chemistry?

A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electrostatic force of attraction between opposite charges, either between electrons and nuclei, or as the result of a dipole attraction.


What is written first when writing formulas and then last in chemistry?

The most used system in inorganic chemistry: first the cation, second the anion (for not simple problems read the manual Nomenclature in inorganic chemistry edited by IUPAC). In organic chemistry, with very long and complicate formulas, the rules are also more difficult. It is necessary to read the manual Nomenclature in organic chemistry edited by IUPAC.I mention that in informatics the Hill system is used for chemical formulas.

Which is the study of the processes within living organisms organic chemistry biochemistry inorganic chemistry physical chemistry?

I am thinking that the study of the mechanism that drives the rate of energy transfer in chemical reactions, would most likely me studied in most detail in Biochemistry. This would also be covered on a smaller scale in your basic chemistry classes.


Is carbon dioxide organic or inorganic compound?

First, a note: Capitalization is important in chemistry. You most likely mean CO2, which is carbon dioxide. Co2 would be a diatomic molecule of cobalt, which does not exist. CO2 is inorganic because even though it contains carbon it does not contain hydrogen.

Who is an ionic bond scientist?

There is no specific study of ionic bonds, but being most common in inorganic chemistry probably an inorganic chemist would be most interested.

When was the first nomenclature book published?

The Rules of Inorganic Nomenclature (the 'Red Book'), first published in 1958 by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), was most recently updated as Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry 1990.


Are there special training or courses needed to work in Inorganic chemistry?

Your question is a little too vague to answer. It depends on exactly what the "work in inorganic chemistry" entails what training or courses would be needed, and it's not entirely clear what would make them "special". Inorganic chemistry is a sub-specialty of chemistry. Most chemistry majors will take at least one class specifically devoted to inorganic chemistry in college (and probably promptly forget most of it... I vaguely recall terms like "ligand field theory" and "hard" vs. "soft" cations, but I'd need a refresher if I were forced to explain in any detail what either of those things meant), and as a result could probably do basic "work in inorganic chemistry" with minimal additional coursework required. Specialists will, of course, have had extra coursework in the field in graduate school.


What makes carbon unique?

Carbon is unique in the way that chemistry is divided into two parts. Organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry. Organic chemistry is related to carbon and inorganic chemistry is the chemistry other than that related to carbon. This fact should highlight the importance of carbon in chemical reactions. The carbon is unique in that one carbon can form a bond with another carbon. This gives rise to most complicated chemical structures in three dimensions. The intricacy of such structures can only be imagined to only certain level only. It is beyond comprehension of any human brain. The most beautiful creation of the nature is life. Life would not have been possible without carbon atom. The soul can be liberated with out taking birth. That way the importance of carbon increases to immense extent.

Distinguish between inorganic and organic chemistry?

Physical chemistry Organic chemistry physical properties of elements involve C,O,and H eg, thermodynamic eg, aliphatic compound focus more on calculation focus more on reaction

What chemistry can do to you?

I'm at the University of Glasgow and there you can study Forensic chemistry Medicinal Chemistry (which is the most popular) chemical physics and straight chemistry but within the straight chemistry there is inorganic, physical and organic and within that there is even more! magnetochemisty, crystallography, theoretical, solid state, catalysis, surface,radical chemistry, protein chemistry, radiochemistry and don't forget environmental chemistry. and there is so much more. Chemistry is one of the broadest sciences there is.
