Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Ionic bonds are between non-metals and metals. Copper is a metal and oxygen is a non-metal; therefore, Copper II oxide is ionically bonded.
What else can I help you with?
IS CuO Ionic or molecular?
CuO is an ionic compound because it is composed of a metal (copper) and a non-metal (oxygen) that are bonded together through ionic bonds.
Is Cuo a ionic or molcular?
The simplest description is that it is ionic, and the argument is that the difference in electronegativity causes a full transfer of electrons. It is high melting solid and certainly i not molecular. As with many metal oxides the real bonding is somewhere between ionic and covalent, and this is particularly true for metals other than those in group1 and 2. I personally do not like the categorisation of compounds into ionic and molecular. Many macro crystalline solids are covalent.
Is FeSO4 a ionic or covalent bond?
It is ionic
Which ones in the chemical reaction 'CuO CO2---CuCO3' are ionic compounds?
CuO + CO2 -> CuCO3 CuO is copper oxide and is an ionic bond Cu(2+) and O(2-) CuCO3 is also an ionic bond, as one oxygen from copper oxide has joined with the covalently bonded carbon dioxide, CO2, to form carbonate, a polyatomic ion. Cu(2+) and CO3(2-)
Ionic compound name for CuO?
CuO is copper (II) oxide, also known as cupric oxide.
Why CuS is covalent compound while CuO is ionic compound?
Not sure about your examples but electronegativity variance is a good rule of thumb for deciding ionic from covalent bonds. Electronegativity variance less than 1.4, generally much less, indicates a covalent bonding. Electronegativity variance greater than 1.4 indicates ionic bonding.
IS CuO Ionic or molecular?
