Is sodium sulfate ionic or molecular compound?
Sodium sulfate is an ionic compound, composed of monatomic and monovalent sodium cations and polyatomic and divalent sulfate anions. The anions are internally covalently bonded, but are not compounds because they are not electrically neutral.
What is the chemical formula for ammonium nitate?
The formula for ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3. Both the cations and the anions in this compound are polyatomic.
A anions and xenons b anions and cations c cations and xenons d xenons and anions Which of these are ions?
The ions are b, anions and cations. Note that xenon is not an ion, it is a noble gas.
Do anions have a larger radius compared to cations?
Yes, anions have a larger radius compared to cations.
Is aluminum sulfite a ionic or covalent?
Aluminum sulfite is an ionic compound. Aluminum is a metal that tends to lose electrons to form cations, while sulfite is a polyatomic ion composed of sulfur and oxygen that tends to gain electrons to form anions. When aluminum cations combine with sulfite anions, they form an ionic bond.
What are the 2 kinds of ions?
There are at least two reasonable answers to this question: anions and cations or monatomic and polyatomic.
Are a vast majority of polyatomic ions cations?
No. Most polyatomic ions are anions.
Does lithium form monatomic anions?
No; lithium forms monatomic cations with formula Li+1.
How are cations anions monoatomic ions and polyatomic ions the same and different?
Cations are positive ions (Fe2+, NH4+).Anions are negative ions (Cl-, (SO4)2-).Fe2+ is a monoatomic ion and (NH4)+ is a polyatomic Ion (contain more than one element).
What charge does a monatomic silver cation have?
Cations are always positive, whatever they're of. Ooh, or is that anions? Yeah, on second thoughts I think cations are negative. Hang on a minute, I'll check......nope, I was right first time. Cations are positive.
When does the end of the name of a negative ion in -ide?
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
When does the end of a name of a negative end ide?
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
When does the end of a name of a negative ion in -ide?
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
What is a polyatamic ion?
A polyatomic ion is one that contains more than one atom. Many common anions are polyatomic, e.g. NO3-, SO42-, CO32-, PO43- Cations may be polyatomic, e.g NH4+, Hg22+
When does the end of name of a negative ion end in -ide?
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
When does the end of the name of the negative ion end in -ide?
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
Is pottasium sulfate a covalent bond?
Potassium sulfate contains both covalent and ionic bonding. Potassium cations are bonded ionically to the polyatomic sulfate anions, and these anions are internally bonded covalently.
