What compounds do nonmetals form when they burn in oxygen?
Nonmetals burning in oxygen form covalent type compounds, as compared to metals which form ionic compounds.
What type of compounds form from nonmetals sharing electrons?
These are covalent compounds.
What type of molecules is helium likely to form?
Helium does not form any compounds.
What type of organic marcomolecule is formed by polymerizaion reactions between amino acids?
Amino acids polymerize to form proteins.
What type organic macro-molecule is form polymerization reaction between amino acids?
This macromolecule is a protein.
Nucleic acids and carbohydrates are a type of what?
Organic compounds.
What type of biological compounds contain fatty acids?
Fatty acids are found in the compounds of lipids. The fatty acid lipid compounds can be found in both plants and animals.
What type of atoms form compounds?
Every type of atom can form compounds.
What type of compounds form by electron sharing?
These are the covalent compounds.
What ion do acidic compounds contain?
At least one H+ ion, called proton, and one anion which remains when the proton is donated to a base or to a water molecule: H3O+ (hydronium) is formed, lowering pH of the water.The above isn't actually wrong, though it's worth noting that that's actually a description of a particular type of acid (an Arrhenius or possibly Brønsted-Lowry acid). Lewis acids use a more general definition and are not required to contain any particular ion... any electron pair acceptor is a Lewis acid. (All Lewis acids are Brønsted acids, but not all Brønsted acids are Lewis acids.)
Starch cellulose and glycogen belong to what type of organic compounds?
uh amino acids

What type of compounds form from nonmetals sharing electrons?
These are covalent compounds.
What type of element reacts with acids to form hydrogen?
Metals react with acids to form H2. Metalloids also show this type of reactions.
Acidic compounds contain which element?
Well it depends on what kind of acid you're talking about. Most people think of acids as hydrogen donating compounds and that is indeed one type of acid. It fits under the Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid and under the Arrhenius definition (which says that acids are compounds that dissociate in water into hydrogen ions etc.). However, under the Lewis definition, an acid is anything that can accept an electron pair and it doesn't have to contain hydrogen.
What type of bond do amino acids form?
Amino acids form peptide bonds when bonding with one another.
What type of elements form compounds that consist of molecules?
All compounds consist of molecules.
