It depends on the rule you use to classify it. Magnesium Sulfide is ionic, if using the metal-nonmetal rule. It is polar covalent, if using the 1.7 electronegativity difference rule. Both these rules are generalizations.
No, magnesium and sulfur would not form an ionic compound because they are both nonmetals. Ionic compounds are formed between a metal and a nonmetal. Magnesium and sulfur would likely form a covalent compound instead.
The compound is ionic because Mg (magnesium) is a metal and S (sulfur) is a non metal with a relatively high electro-negativity.MgS [note correct letter cases] has ionic bonds.
Zirconium sulfide is typically considered to be an ionic compound, with zirconium forming cations and sulfide forming anions.
MgS Magnesium Sulfide is ionic [citation reqd] MgSO4 is definitely ionic
No, HgS (mercury(II) sulfide) is not an ionic compound. It is a covalent compound because mercury and sulfur form a covalent bond by sharing electrons.
No, magnesium and sulfur would not form an ionic compound because they are both nonmetals. Ionic compounds are formed between a metal and a nonmetal. Magnesium and sulfur would likely form a covalent compound instead.
Magnesium Sulfide ionic bond
The compound is ionic because Mg (magnesium) is a metal and S (sulfur) is a non metal with a relatively high electro-negativity.MgS [note correct letter cases] has ionic bonds.
Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound, not a covalent compound. It is formed through the transfer of electrons from magnesium to oxygen, resulting in the formation of ionic bonds between the two elements.
Zirconium sulfide is typically considered to be an ionic compound, with zirconium forming cations and sulfide forming anions.
MgS Magnesium Sulfide is ionic [citation reqd] MgSO4 is definitely ionic
no. it only has ionic as far as i know.
No, HgS (mercury(II) sulfide) is not an ionic compound. It is a covalent compound because mercury and sulfur form a covalent bond by sharing electrons.
Zinc sulfide is a covalent compound.
No, MgCl2 is not covalent. It is an ionic compound formed by the transfer of electrons from magnesium to chlorine atoms. Magnesium loses two electrons and each chlorine gains one electron to form the ionic bond.
Magnesium chloride is a compound, not a bond of any kind. The compound is ionic.
Aluminium sulfide is an ionic compound formed between aluminium (a metal) and sulfur (a non-metal), therefore it is an ionic compound.
