Is LiN ionic or covalent

Answer 1

electronegativity increaseas as one goes up from the bottom of the Periodic Table lithium and Hydrogen have very different electronagativity values. lithim must donate a electron to hydrogen to obtain a noble gas configuration as well as hydrogen will also accept electron from lithium to achieve the configuration of a noble gas. with that being said Lih is an ionic bond.

Answer 2

No, like all lithium (Li) compounds Li3N ( lithium nitride) is ionic.

Answer 3

Lithium nitride is Li3N - it is usually described as ionic but it has a very unusual structure that indicates some covalent bonding.

Answer 4

LiN, or lithium nitride, is an ionic compound because lithium is a metal that donates an electron to nitrogen, a non-metal, resulting in the formation of ions (Li+ and N-).

Answer 5

Ionic

Answer 6
