What is a substance of 2 atoms bonded called?

If they are covalently bonded, it would be a molecule. If they are bonded by an ionic bond, they form an ionic compound.


Do any compounds exist only as an atom?

No, a single atom would have to belong to a particular element. A compound must contain two or more different types of atom that are chemically bonded (either covalently or ionically) together.


Is ne2 an ionic compound?

No, "ne2" is not an ionic compound. "Ne2" would represent a molecule of two neon atoms bonded together covalently, since neon is a noble gas and does not typically form ionic bonds.


Is pure acetic acid ionic or molecular compound?

Any kind of acid should be a molecular compound because molecular compounds consists of the combination of non metals. An ionic compound would consist of a metal and a nonmetal, but all acids have the element "H" followed by a gas and are therefor not ionic compounds.


Does nitrogen and oxygen form an ionic compound?

No, nitrogen and oxygen do not usually form an ionic compound with each other. They are more likely to form covalent compounds due to their similar electronegativities, meaning they share electrons rather than transfer them.


What compound would be classified as an organic compound?

An organic compound is pretty much any compound that contains carbon bonded to hydrogen


Is S8 Empirical or Molecular?

Molecular. The empirical formula would simply be S.


Which type of elements are molecular compounds composed of?

Molecular compounds are composed of all types of elements. I think the answer you're going for is what type of BONDS are molecular compounds composed of. In which case, the answer would be covalant, however this can vary between polar and nonpolar covalant, that's what a molecular compound is made of, otherwise it's an ionic compound.


Inorganic compounds are usually held together by what kind of bond?

It is the same type of chemical bond that is found in organic compounds: the covalent bond. Also known as 'the sharing of a pair of electrons', it forms usually single, & sometimes double bonds, and rarely triple bonds {- as in the case of a "pair of combining trivalent Nitogen atoms" - i.e. N triple-bond-N - this represents 'the sharing of three pairs of electrons' by two Atoms!}


Are binary molecular compounds made out of two cations?

No. Binary molecular compounds are made out of two nonmetals covalently bonded. Examples include H2O, CO, CO2, H2S, NO2, SO2. Two cations would never form a compound because like charges repel.


What is the substance made up of two or more different types of atoms bonded together?

A compound is a substance made up of two or more different types of atoms bonded together. The atoms in a compound are chemically bonded, which means they are connected in a specific arrangement. This results in unique properties for each compound.


Is PBr3 a molecular compound?

No. Since BH3 lacks a lone pair it would be a Lewis acid.
