A non stoichiometric compound is one where an exact integer ratio of atoms is not achieved. An example is FeO- all laboratory specimens are "iron deficient" with formals of about Fe0.8 O this is a feature of non -stoichiometric compounds their composition is variable within narrow limits- some of the iron is Fe3+, the crystal lattice has "defects" that accomodate them. (Pure FeO can be made but it is pyrophoric (may spontaneously in flame)

Examples of ionic and covalent compounds?
Ionic compounds: NaCl, KOH, CuSO4, etc. Any compound containing a metal and a non-metal. In ionic compounds, metals have positive ions (they lose electrons to the non metal) and non-metals have negative ions (as they gain electrons from the metal) Covalent compounds: CH4, BF3, NH3, all hydrocarbons/ all compounds containing only non-metals.
Is ionic compounds polar or non-polar?
Ionic compounds are non-polar because they consist of ions (charged particles) held together by electrostatic forces. These compounds do not have a separation of charge within the molecule, which is characteristic of polar compounds.
What does non-ionic mean?
Non-ionic means not carrying an electric charge. Non-ionic compounds or molecules do not contain positively or negatively charged ions, unlike ionic compounds which do. This property allows non-ionic substances to have different solubility and chemical characteristics compared to ionic compounds.
Do polar compounds travel farther in TLC compared to non-polar compounds?
Yes, polar compounds typically travel farther in Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) compared to non-polar compounds due to their stronger interactions with the polar stationary phase.
Are non aromatic compounds stable or unstable?
Non-aromatic compounds can be stable or unstable, as stability is determined by factors such as bond strength, molecular structure, and energy content. Non-aromatic compounds can exhibit varying degrees of stability, depending on their specific chemical composition and environment.
Idea why do you need to balance chemical equation?
To perform stochiometric calculations
What is the term for the numbers added in front of some compoundes to balance a chemical equation?
I think moles
Are non binary compounds and polyatomic compounds the same thing?
yes
Which compounds elute first in non polar gc column?
In a non-polar GC column, compounds with lower polarity elute first. Non-polar compounds are less attracted to the non-polar stationary phase of the column, so they move through the column faster than polar compounds.

what type of compounds produce electrolytes and which produce non-electrolytes?
Ionic compounds produce electrolytes; covalent compounds not.
What compounds are formed with the element of chlorine?
chlorine forms ionic compounds with metals and covalent compounds with non-metals.

What element forms compounds with nonmetals?
Metals form compounds very easily with non-metals.
Do polar compounds travel farther in TLC compared to non-polar compounds?
Yes, polar compounds typically travel farther in Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) compared to non-polar compounds due to their stronger interactions with the polar stationary phase.
What are non-stoichiometric defects?
Non stoichiometric compounds do not match to law of definite proportions.
