This is kind of a trick question. Solid copper will hold together via metallic bonds, which are something like a group covalent bond. That is, the valence electrons from every Cu nucleus form a "sea of electrons" to stabilize the positive charge.

Is copper oxide covalent or ionic?

no is the answer for sure


Is copper bromide a covalent bond?

No, copper bromide does not have a covalent bond. Copper bromide typically forms an ionic bond due to the large electronegativity difference between copper and bromine atoms.


Is copper 2 chloride covalent?

Copper(II) chloride is not covalent, but ionic. In its solid form, it exists as a crystalline solid with strong ionic bonds between copper and chlorine ions.


Is copper(i)sulfate a ionic or covalent?

Copper sulfate is an ionic bond. This is because copper is a metal, and oxygen and sulfur are non metals.


Is copper 2 bicarbonate ionic or covalent?

Copper(II) bicarbonate is ionic. It is composed of a metal (copper) and non-metal (carbonate) element, which typically forms ionic compounds.


Is CuCN ionic or covalent?

Copper(I) cyanide (CuCN) is considered to have both ionic and covalent character. The bond between copper and cyanide is predominantly covalent due to the sharing of electrons, but there is also some ionic character due to differences in electronegativity between the atoms.


Does CuSO4 have an ionic or covalent bond?

Copper (II) sulfate is ionically bonded.


Do copper and fluorine form an ionic bond?

No, copper and fluorine do not typically form an ionic bond. Copper is a transition metal which tends to form covalent bonds, while fluorine is a highly electronegative element that also forms covalent bonds. In this case, copper and fluorine would likely form a covalent bond rather than an ionic bond.


Does copper form a covalent compound?

Copper Chloride is an ionic bond. So, no. It isn't a covalent bond. :)


Is copper (i) iodide ionic or covalent?

Copper iodide is an ionic compound.


Is Cu2S covalent or ionic?

Cu2S is considered ionic because it is composed of a metal (copper) and a non-metal (sulfur), resulting in the transfer of electrons from copper to sulfur to form ionic bonds.


Is copper (I) phosphate ionic or covalent?

Copper(I) phosphate is an ionic compound. Copper(I) is a cation with a +1 charge, and phosphate is an anion with a -3 charge. The ionic bonding between these oppositely charged ions results in the formation of an ionic compound.
