Which best explains the bonding behavior of the family of elements in the Periodic table called metals?
Metals tend to form bonds by gaining electrons.
What group in the periodic table will form cations?
Metals form cations (positive ions).
What elements would become a positive ion before bonding?
All the elements in periodic columns 1 and 2. Most of the other metals can also form positive ions before bonding, but do not always do so; sometimes they join with non-metals from periodic columns 15 and 16 to form anions instead, and sometimes they form covalent bonds.
Which group from the periodic table combines most readily with other elements to form compounds?
Alkaline Earth metals
What group of elements are generally from colored compounds?
The transition metals tend to form colored compounds.
What is the different bonding methods of elements?
There are two kinds of bonding; ionic and covalent. Ionic bonds form between metals and non-metals. Covalent bonds form between non-metals
What kinds of elements form anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
What kind of elements form anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
A group of elements that form salts?
The majority of elements, and especially metals form salts.
What group of elements combine with other elements to form salts?
Metals form salts.
What kind of elements forms anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
What kind of elements forms ionic after anion bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
What kinds of elements forms anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
Which best explains the bonding behavior of the family of elements in the Periodic table called metals?
Metals tend to form bonds by gaining electrons.
Why the elements of Group 1 are generally known as alkali metals?
Group 1 elements are known as alkali metals because they react with water to form alkali (or bases).
What group in the periodic table will form cations?
Metals form cations (positive ions).
What type of ions do the elements of group 1 form?
Group 1 elements are the alkali metals, which form ions wih a 1+ charge.
