What kind of elements compose an ionic bond?
metallic and nonmetallic elements
Classify the following bonds as ionic covalent or neither O atomic number 8 F atomic number 9 Na atomic number 11 Cl atomic number 17 U atomic number 92?
You haven't stated any bonds, you have just given a list of elements. Those elements can form various compounds, some having ionic bonds and some having covalent bonds. Uranium can also form metallic bonds.
Which element would fluorine form an ionic bond with?
All of the metallic elements will form an ionic bond with fluorine.
Is gold and platnium a ionic solid?
No, gold and platinum are not ionic solids. They are metallic elements that form metallic bonds with delocalized electrons. Ionic solids are formed by the electrostatic attraction between positively and negatively charged ions.
What happens to the atomic radius when an electron is lost?
the positive ionic radius is smaller than the neutral atomic radius
Is tungsten ionic atomic or molecular?
Tungsten is an atomic element, meaning it consists of individual tungsten atoms. Tungsten forms metallic bonds, rather than ionic or molecular bonds, due to its electron configuration.
Is brass an ionic compound?
Brass is a metallic compound (having a metallic bond). The two elements that make it up are both metals; Copper and Zinc.
Are sodium and magnesium are ionic or non ionic?
Sodium and magnesium are both ionic elements. Sodium forms a +1 cation, and magnesium forms a +2 cation when they lose electrons, resulting in the formation of ionic compounds when they react with non-metallic elements.
What is the relationship between the atomic numbers and ionic radii of the elements in the group 3A?
I think that the ionic radii decrease
What happens to an atomic radius when an electrons is lost?
The positive ionic radius is smaller than the neutral atomic radius
Is metallic radius only for metals?
Yes. There are other measures for ions (ionic radius) and free atoms(atomic radius) and covalent radius. Metallic, ionic and covalent are based on measurements of distances in crystals or covelnt bond lengths, atomic radius is based more on calcuation than observation.
Atoms of metallic elements can form ionic bonds but they are not very good at forming covalent bonds. Why?
they have a great tendency to lose electrons
