The acetate groups are comprised of covalent bonds, but they are ionically bonded with the calcium.
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).
Calcium has both ionic and covalent bonds.
Zinc acetate is an ionic compound. It is formed from the ionic bond between zinc cations (Zn2+) and acetate anions (CH3COO-).
Acetate ions have both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between the positively charged cation and the negatively charged acetate ion is ionic, while the bonds within the acetate ion itself (between carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms) are covalent.
Sodium acetate is an ionic compound. It is composed of sodium ions (Na+) and acetate ions (CH3COO-) held together by ionic bonds resulting from the transfer of electrons between the atoms.
of course it is ionic what else could it be?
Ionic
No, Covalent
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).
Lithium acetate (CH3COOLi) is an ionic compound.
Calcium has both ionic and covalent bonds.
Yes, it contains both. The sodium forms an ionic bond with the one oxygen with a single bond (not double) with the carbon, becoming the cation (positive charge). This oxygen and all other atoms in the acetate form covalent bonds.
Zinc acetate is an ionic compound. It is formed from the ionic bond between zinc cations (Zn2+) and acetate anions (CH3COO-).
Acetate ions have both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between the positively charged cation and the negatively charged acetate ion is ionic, while the bonds within the acetate ion itself (between carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms) are covalent.

LiCH3COO contains both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between lithium (Li) and acetate ion (CH3COO) is ionic, while the bonds within the acetate ion itself (between carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms) are covalent.
