NO!!! The word 'monoxide' indicates that a substance, NOT an element, has one(1) oxygen in its formula.

e.g.

Carbon monoxide (CO)

or

Nitrogen monoxide (NO)

What helps detect carbon monoxide buildup?

Several types of carbon monoxide detectors exist: biomimetic, electrochemical, metal oxide semiconductor.


Is lead monoxide a ionic or covalent bond?

Lead monoxide has an ionic bond. Lead, being a metal, tends to lose electrons to form a cation, while oxygen, being a non-metal, tends to gain electrons to form an anion. This electrostatic attraction between the cation (lead) and the anion (oxygen) results in an ionic bond in lead monoxide.


How are metals extractive?

well basically metal is extracted using carbon monoxide


How does the heating with carbon monoxide process work when extracting minerals from its ores?

In the process of heating with carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide acts as a reducing agent. It reacts with the metal oxides in the mineral ores to reduce them to their pure metal form. This process is used to extract metals like iron from their ores by forming volatile metal carbonyl compounds that can be decomposed to produce the pure metal.


Is carbon monoxide amphoteric?

No, carbon monoxide is not amphoteric. An amphoteric substance can act as both an acid and a base, but carbon monoxide does not exhibit this behavior. Instead, it tends to act as a ligand in forming metal complexes.


Does Inorganic compound contains carbon?

Yes, inorganic compound contain carbon such as carbon dioxide, metal carbonates, metal bicarbonates,carbon monoxide and metal carbides


What are the materials to absorbs the carbon monoxide?

Materials that can absorb carbon monoxide include activated carbon, zeolites, and metal oxides like copper oxide. These materials work by physically or chemically binding with the carbon monoxide molecules to remove them from the air.


What is the physical state of beryllium stored at room temperature?

At room temperature beryllium is a solid metal.


Is co poisonous?

CO is carbon monoxide which is a dangerously toxic gas. Co is cobalt a potentially toxic metal.


What kind of bond is sodium monoxide?

Sodium monoxide has an ionic bond. Sodium (Na) is a metal that donates an electron to oxygen (O), a nonmetal, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond between the positively charged sodium ion and the negatively charged oxide ion.


Are there inorganic compound that contains carbon?

yes. such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonates, bicarbonates and inorganic (metal) carbides.


Is dichlorine monoxide covalent or ionic?

Dichlorine monoxide (Cl2O) is a covalent compound because it consists of nonmetals (chlorine and oxygen) bonding together by sharing electrons. Ionic compounds typically form between a metal and a nonmetal.
