No, because of their strong attraction between them, they must always exist between together.
Ionic compounds are neutral overall because they consist of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions that balance each other out. The total positive charge from the cations is equal to the total negative charge from the anions, resulting in a neutral compound.
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
Positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) form an ionic compound through electrostatic attraction. The cations and anions are held together in a crystal lattice structure, resulting in a stable compound.
The anions.
The anions.
For cations + (ex.: Na+); for anions - (ex.: Cl-).
anions and cations
No, cations have a positive charge and have lost electrons. Anions have a negative charge and have gained electrons. In an ionic compound anions and cations attract each other due to opposite charges.
Yes, CIBr is an ionic compound. When CIBr dissolves in water, it dissociates into its constituent ions: Cations (Cations are the positive ions) Cl− and anions (anions are the negative ions) Br− .
Ionic compounds are formed by the combination of positively charged ions (cations) with negatively charged ions (anions). The cations are typically metal atoms that have lost electrons, while the anions are nonmetal atoms that have gained electrons. The ratio of cations to anions in an ionic compound is such that the overall compound is electrically neutral.
No, "Bal2" is not a correct chemical formula for an ionic compound. Ionic compounds typically consist of a cation and an anion held together by electrostatic forces. Can you provide the correct formula or name of the compound you are asking about?
Cu3P is an ionic compound. Copper (Cu) typically forms cations with a charge of +2, while phosphorus (P) forms anions with a charge of -3. In Cu3P, the copper cations and phosphorus anions form an ionic bond due to the transfer of electrons.
