Common substances that form ionic compounds?
substances such as sodium and chlorine for ionic compounds basically it is neutral elements that form ionic compounds
What compounds does ionic bonds form?
they form elements
Is the composition of an ionic compound formed by two or more nonmetallic elements?
Ionic compounds do not form between nonmetallic elements. Nonmetallic elements form covalent bonds, and form molecular compounds. Ionic compounds are generally formed by metals and nonmetals.
What happens when elements combine?
Elements combine to form compounds to become more stable
How do you find out that a given molecule is ionic or covalent or both?
Generally, metals and nonmetals combine to form ionic compounds, and nonmetals combine to form molecules.
What are the kinds of elements that combine to form ionic compounds are what?
A metal and a nonmetal.
What groups of elements always combine to make ionic compounds?
All metals combine to form ionic compounds.Group 1(except hydrogen),2-12, all elements form ionic compounds.then Group 13 (except Boron), Group 14-tin and lead and Group 15 Bismuth only.The above mentioned group elements form ionic compounds.
What do elements combine to form?
Elements combine to form chemical compounds.
When elements and compounds combine to form new compounds the reaction is described in a?
When elements and compounds combine to form new compounds the reaction is described in a chemical equation.

Ionic compounds do not form between nonmetallic elements. Nonmetallic elements form covalent bonds, and form molecular compounds. Ionic compounds are generally formed by metals and nonmetals.
which of the following is NOT true about elements when they combine to form compounds a. atoms of elements combine to form moleculesb?
yeah it is
Elements whose atoms can combine to form compounds?
Reactive elements have atoms that can combine to form compounds. The atoms in a compound are combined through different types of bonds, such as ionic, covalent, hydrogen, and metallic bonding. With ionic bonding, there is an exchange of electrons between atoms. Covalent bonding occurs when electrons are shared by two atoms.
What happens when elements combine?
Elements combine to form compounds to become more stable
What is an atom is it a molecule an element or a compound?
Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. Atoms are the most basic units of an element that have the properties of that element. Atoms of elements combine to form molecules, which can be molecular compounds, and atoms of elements can combine to form ionic compounds, as well. Compounds contain atoms of two or more elements chemically combined.
What is shared when elements combine to form compounds?
Electrons are shared when elements combine to form molecules.
