No, Co (cobalt) and Br (bromine) do not typically form an ionic compound. Cobalt is a transition metal with variable oxidation states, while bromine is a halogen with a high electronegativity. In general, transition metals tend to form coordination complexes with ligands rather than traditional ionic compounds with nonmetals like halogens.

What ionic compound is CO?

The ionic compound for CO is carbon monoxide.


Is the compound CO ionic?

No, it is covalent.


Is CO a ionic compound or a pure covalent compound?

I'm not sure what you mean by "purely covalent", since the ionic-vs-covalent distinction is expressed in terms of electronegativity, which can take a range of values (higher values = more ionic). CO is very much a covalent compound though.


Is CoBr2 ionic or covalent?

CoBr2 is an ionic compound because it is composed of a metal (cobalt) and a nonmetal (bromine). Ionic compounds form due to the electrostatic attraction between positively charged metal cations and negatively charged nonmetal anions.


Does CO have ionic bonds?

No, carbon monoxide (CO) does not have ionic bonds. It is a covalent compound where the carbon and oxygen atoms share electrons to form a stable molecule.


What is the ionic compound name for CO?

Carbon monoxide.


Is CO ionic or molecular?

CO is a molecular compound. It consists of a covalent bond between carbon and oxygen atoms.


Is CoBr3 ionic or covalently bonded?

Copper bromide is an ionic compound.


Is CO polar non polar or ionic?

Cobalt is an element. Polar, non-polar and ionic are terms to describe compounds. They measure whether the compound as delta charges or their form of bonding. Thus, it is not applicable to cobalt (Co), which is an element and pure by itself.


What is the name for the ionic compound Co 3 N 2?

The ionic compound Co3N2 is known as cobalt(II) nitride.


CO is Covalent ionic or metallic?

Co, carbon monoxide, is covalent. Two non-metals, difference in electronegativity mkes the bond polar.


Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons and ionic bonds are formed when positive and negative ions bond to form an ionic compound.?

Yes, that's correct. In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. In an ionic bond, one atom transfers electrons to another, resulting in the attraction between oppositely charged ions to form a compound.
