Iron chloride (FeCl2 or FeCl3) would have to be considered as a COVALENT compound. The reason for this is that the Cl has an electronegativity (EN) value of 3.16 and Fe has an EN value of 1.83. The difference is 1.33, and it is widely accepted that to be ionic, the EN difference should exceed 1.7. Of course, iron chloride will have some ionic character, but it should more properly be classed as a polar covalent molecule. Just because it is a metal bound to a non metal, does NOT make it ionic. This is a fallacy.
Iron II chloride is an ionic compound where the bond between iron and chloride ions is ionic. Iron(II) cation (Fe2+) and chloride anion (Cl-) have opposite charges, which result in an electrostatic attraction known as an ionic bond.
Iron(III) chloride is an ionic compound.
No, cesium chloride is an ionic compound, not covalent. It is composed of cesium cations (Cs+) and chloride anions (Cl-) held together by ionic bonds.
Ammonium chloride has both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between the ammonium ion (NH4+) and the chloride ion (Cl-) is ionic, while the bonds within the ammonium ion itself (between nitrogen and hydrogen) are covalent.
Yes, FeCl2 (iron(II) chloride) is an ionic compound. It is composed of iron(II) cations (Fe2+) and chloride anions (Cl-), which are held together by ionic bonds.
Iron II chloride is an ionic compound where the bond between iron and chloride ions is ionic. Iron(II) cation (Fe2+) and chloride anion (Cl-) have opposite charges, which result in an electrostatic attraction known as an ionic bond.
