Most transition metals have this property, as do some other elements. Nonmetals often have more than one possible oxidation number in their polyatomic anions, but these tend to have the same charge, as in perchlorate, chlorate, chlorite, and hypochlorite, which all have the charge of -1.

Does ionic bonds form between molecules that have no charges?

no. it forms between molecules that have opposite charges.


Is the element NACI a covalent bond or ionic bond?

The element NaCl forms an ionic bond. In an ionic bond, one atom donates an electron to another, leading to the formation of ions with opposite charges that are held together by electrostatic forces. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.


Is the element Ba an ionic bond?

It forms one, yes. The element in itself is not a bond.


What element is most likely to form an ionic compound with Ba?

Chlorine (Cl) is the most likely element to form an ionic compound with barium (Ba) due to their opposite charges and high reactivity. Barium typically forms Ba2+ ions, while chlorine forms Cl- ions, allowing them to easily combine to form BaCl2.

How to find the ionic charge of an element or ion?

To find the ionic charge of an element or ion, you can look at the element's position on the periodic table. Elements in groups 1, 2, and 13 tend to have positive charges, while elements in groups 15, 16, and 17 tend to have negative charges. Transition metals can have multiple charges, so you may need to refer to a table of common charges for these elements.


What does ionic bonding form?

Ionic bonding forms between a metal and a nonmetal. It involves the transfer of electrons from the metal to the nonmetal, resulting in the formation of ions with opposite charges that are held together by electrostatic attraction.


What kind of element forms anion after ionic?

Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
