Is SrS a ionic of covalent bond?

Answer 1

Well, isn't that a happy little question! SrS is an ionic bond because it forms between a metal (strontium) and a non-metal (sulfur). Just like how we blend colors on our canvas, these elements come together by transferring electrons to create a strong bond. Remember, there are no mistakes, only happy accidents in the world of chemistry!

Answer 2

SrS represents an ionic bond between strontium (metal) and sulfur (non-metal). Ionic bonds form between metals and non-metals through the transfer of electrons, resulting in the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions.

Answer 3

No. This is an ionic bond. Look at the electronegativity Cl (3.0) - Sr (1.0) = 2.0; 0.0 to 0.4 is covalent, 0.4+ to 1.7 is polar-covalent and above 1.7 is ionic. You can also assume that a metal and non-metal will form an ionic bonds.

Answer 4

Ionic Compound. The Sr is a CATION of 2+ and the Cl2 is a ANION of 1-. Also ionic compounds usually are of a metal and nonmetal. Sr is a metal and Cl2 is a nonmetal. This is why SrCl2 is ionic.

Answer 5

You mean SrBr2. Sr is an alkaline earth metal, which means it can lose 2 electrons to from a cation with a +2 charge. The Bromine is a halogen, which can gain 1 electron to form an anion with a -1 charge. SrBr2 is the correct chemical formula because you need 2 bromines to neutralize the charges. Since ions are involved in this chemical bond, it is an ionic bond.

Answer 6

Well, honey, SrS is an ionic bond. It's like the classic odd couple - one gives away an electron, the other gladly accepts it. They may not share, but they sure make a strong pair.

Answer 7

SrCl2 - strontium chloride, is ionically bonded.

Answer 8

This compound of an alkaline earth metal and a halogen is ionic, as are all such compounds.

Answer 9

Strontium sulfide, SrS contains ionic bonds.

Answer 10

Strontium chloride is ionic compound.
