Is ammonium acetate covalent or ionic?

Ammonium acetate is an ionic compound. It is formed from the ionic bond between the positively charged NH4+ ion (ammonium) and the negatively charged CH3COO- ion (acetate).


Is Ammonium acetate and Sodium acetate the same thing?

No, Sodium acetate (NaCH3CO2) contains the positive ion of sodium (Na+), a highly reactive metal. It is the product of acetic acid (CH3CO2H) reacting with sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Sodium acetate is mildly basic. Ammonium acetate (NH4CH3CO2H) contains the ammonium ion (NH4+) a polyatomic ion composed of the nonmetal nitrogen and hydrogen. It is the product of ammonia (NH3) reacting with acetic acid. Ammonium acetate is neutral.

What type bond is ammonium acetate?

There are two types of bonding in ammonium sulphate. In ammonium ion, ntrogen and hydrogen are bonded by covalent bonds (intermolecular / Van Der Waals forces) as both of the elements are non-metals. Between ammonium and sulphate, both ions, they are joined together by ionic bonds.

What is the name of an acid base reaction between vinegar and ammonia?

The reaction between vinegar (acetic acid) and ammonia is an acid-base reaction that forms ammonium acetate. The ammonia acts as a base, accepting a proton from acetic acid to form ammonium ion, while the remaining acetate ion combines with a hydrogen ion to form water.

C2H3O2- is the acetate ion.


How does ammonium ion form a insoluble salt?

Ammonium ion forms insoluble salts when combined with some divalent or trivalent ions that produce low solubility compounds. For example, combining ammonium ion (NH4+) with sulfate ion (SO4^2-) forms ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4, which is insoluble in water.
