No, molecular compounds typically form from nonmetals or metalloids bonding with each other, rather than from two metals. Metals tend to form metallic bonds with each other, where electrons are shared among all atoms in a sea of delocalized electrons.

When elements combine they form what compounds?

If the elements are both non-metals, they form a molecular compound. If they are both metals, they form a metallic bonds. If they are a metal and a non-metal they form ionic bonds (salts). (Ammonium salts are non-metals.)

Is se4s4 ionic?

Se4S4 is not a common ionic compound. It is more likely a molecular compound since it is composed of nonmetals selenium and sulfur, which typically form covalent bonds.


What is formed when two metals or a metal and nonmetal are combined?

When two metals are combined, they form an alloy, which is a solid solution of different metals. When a metal and a nonmetal are combined, they form an ionic compound through the transfer of electrons between the two elements.


Which element is likely to form an ionic compound with chlorine iodine cesium helium or iron?

Metals form ionic compounds with non metals. Fe is a metal. So it is likely to make ionic bonds with Cl.

Is AgI a binary molecular compound?

No, AgI is a binary ionic compound. Silver (Ag) is a metal, and iodine (I) is a nonmetal. Metals and nonmetals form ionic bonds.


Do sodium and nitrogen form an molecular compound?

Sodium and nitrogen do not form a molecular compound together. Sodium is a metal and nitrogen is a nonmetal, so they would form an ionic compound, such as sodium nitride (Na3N).
