What kind of structure does an ionic compound have?
crystal compounds
What kind of event must occur involving electrons if atoms of two different elements react to form an ionic or molecular compound?
In an ionic compound, the atoms must transfer electrons. In a molecular compound, the atoms must share electrons.
What kind of bond occurs when an atom of sodium joins an atoms of chlorine to form sodium chloride?
An ionic bond. A metal bonding with a non-metal will always give you an ionic bond.
Organic compounds are usually held together by what kind of bond?
Ionic Bonds.
What kind of bond is CsCl?
First, the formula is SiCl4. It forms covalent bonds. Ionic compounds don't form molecules.
What kind of atoms form what?
ionic or even covalent bonds
What kind of bonds do transition metals usually form?
ionic compounds
What kind of bonds form when atoms steal electrons?
This is an ionic bond.
What kind of bond would you expect atoms strontium and iodine to form?
It is ionic bond
When 2 oxygen atoms come together they form what kind of bond?
ionic
What kind of charge do ionic compounds have?
positive
How can you tell what kind of bonds an elements atoms have?
atoms having low Ionisation enthalpy and ones having high electronegativity form ionic bond
What kind of structure does an ionic compound have?
crystal compounds
What kind of event must occur involving electrons if atoms of two different elements react to form an ionic or molecular compound?
In an ionic compound, the atoms must transfer electrons. In a molecular compound, the atoms must share electrons.
What kind of bonds do helium atoms form?
helium has completely filled valence electrons. hence it are stable, chemically inert and do not form compounds.
What kind of combination of atoms do compounds have?
They have nothing
What is the describshon of the kind of bond that is formed when atoms bond?
atoms can bond to either form covalent bonds or ionic bonds. I'm not sure what you're really looking for.
