Which alkali metal has the lowest electronegativity?
Francium
Is a covalent bond normally formed when an alkali metal combines with a non-metal?
No, ionic bonds form between alkali metals and nonmetals.
How do you know if an ionic compound between an alkali metal with a nonmetal is done correctly?
Since all alkali metals form a 1+ ion, the number of alkali metal atoms in the formula should be equal to the charge on the negative ion.
How do you use the periodic table to recall the ionic charge of an alkli metal an alkaline earth metal or aluminum?
The ionic charge of: alkali is +1 alkaline earth metals is +2 aluminium is +3
What alkali metal is diatomic?
No metals form molecules; they only exist as ionic compounds or metallic elements or alloys.
Potassium iodate covalent or ionic bond?
It is ionic. All alkali metal compounds (potassium being an alkali metal) are ionic.
Which alkali metal has the lowest electronegativity?
Francium
What is the chemical composition of alkalie?
Alkali is a basic, ionic salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal element. Thus, the chemical composition of an alkali is: alkali metal,hydrogen,oxygen,carbon.
What kind of chemical bond is formed by transfer of electrons between alkali metal and halogen?
ionic bond
Is a covalent bond normally formed when an alkali metal combines with a non-metal?
No, ionic bonds form between alkali metals and nonmetals.
What family of elements will form ionic bonds with alkali metals in a 2-1 ratio alkali metal to other element?
If the Alkali Metal is the 2, then the Oxygen Family makes the 1 in the ratio. I also believe this forms and ionic bond.
Is metal oxide an alkali?
Metal oxide is the ionic bond combination of any metal element of the periodic table of elements with oxygen. The alkali metals and alkali earth metals are respectively the first and second columns of elements found on the periodic table. Thus, alkali metal oxides and earth metal oxides are types of metal oxides, but metal oxide does not imply alkali.
Can Potassium and sulfur can form a ionic compound?
Yes, Potassium is a metal, specifically an alkali metal, and sulfur is a nonmetal. The alkali metals will form ionic bonds with nonmetals, including sulfur. Potassium and sulfur will form potassium sulfide, K2S.
Is KBrO3 molecular or ionic?
As it contains the alkali metal potassium and the halogen bromine it is likely to be ionic
Is potassium a non metal?
Potassium is an alkali metal but it is only found in nature as an ionic salt.
Why is sodium bicarbonate solution alkaline?
In chemistry, an alkali is a basic, ionic salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal element. Some authors also define an alkali as a base that dissolves in water. NaHCO3 or sodium bicarbonate is therefore by definition alkali.
Is NaI ionic or molecular?
It is ionic, since Na (sodium) is one of the Alkali metals. Here's a tip: molecular compounds involve non-metal substances, whereas ionic compounds involve metal substances.
