Does oxygen and barium form an ionic compound?

Barium can form two distinct compounds with oxygen as the only other element in the compound: barium oxide with formula BaO and barium peroxide with formula BaO2. The first of these compounds is more common and more stable.


What charge does Sr form when it forms and ion?

strontium is a metal, therefore it must form only positive ions.


What is the formula for ionic compound formed between barium and nitrate?

Ba(NO3)2. Barium forms divalent cations, and the nitrate polyatomic anion has only one negative charge.

Does peroxide contain hydrogen and oxygen?

Peroxide commonly refers to hydrogen peroxide, or H2O2, which is composes only of hydrogen and oxygen. However, in chemistry it can also refer to the peroxide ion O22- which is composed only of oxygen. The former usage of the term "peroxide" is more common.


Why is there only one chloride ion for the molecules lithium chloride and potassium chloride but two chlorides for barium chloride strontium chloride and calcium chloride?

In an ionic compound the charges of all the ions must balance out to zero. The chloride ion has a charge of -1. Lithium and potassium ions both have a +1 charge. So these ions will combine in a 1:1 ration. By contrast, barium, strontium, and calcium all form ions with a 2+ charge, so in order to balance the charges, chloride ions must combine with these metals in a 2:1 ratio.


Is strontium radioactive?

Nearly 100% of all strontium found in nature is not radioactive. There are traces of radioactive strontium-90 found in nature, but only traces. Like all elements, strontium has radioactive synthetic isotopes.
