Ionic compounds only occur between a nonmetal and metal, also Halogens and The Carbon Family do not form Ionic bonds.
No, ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal. Nonmetallic elements typically form covalent compounds where they share electrons rather than transfer them.
Sodium and magnesium are both ionic elements. Sodium forms a +1 cation, and magnesium forms a +2 cation when they lose electrons, resulting in the formation of ionic compounds when they react with non-metallic elements.
The statement that all compounds have a composition of ionic compounds is false. Many compounds can be covalent in nature, where atoms share electrons instead of transferring them. On the other hand, it is true that compounds have a definite composition with fixed ratios of elements and compounds are formed by the bonding of two or more different elements.
Copper itself is a pure element and does not form compounds under normal conditions. However, copper can combine with other elements to form both ionic and molecular compounds depending on the elements it is bonded with.
substances such as sodium and chlorine for ionic compounds basically it is neutral elements that form ionic compounds

Generally ioic compounds contain metals and non metals. However the compound NH4Cl is ionic, and contains NH4+ and Cl- ,and all of the elements are non-metals.
Ionic compounds are formed between elements with significantly different electronegativities. When one element has a low electronegativity (such as metals) and the other has a high electronegativity (such as nonmetals), they are likely to form an ionic bond. Periodic trends can also help predict which elements are likely to form ionic compounds.
Yes, all ionic compounds consist of ions formed from at least two different elements - one positively charged cation and one negatively charged anion. This is what allows them to have an overall neutral charge and form ionic bonding.
Nonmetals may react with metal to form ionic compounds (salts) or other nonmetal elements to form organic compounds.
