What is the box shape called that ionic compounds tend to create?
Ionic compounds tend to form a crystal lattice structure.
How can molecular compounds be distinguished from ionic compounds?
Many ionic compounds exist as crystals but covalent compounds as molecules (there are exceptions as diamond though). Ionic compounds would be good electrical conductors unlike molecular compounds.
Do ionic compounds form crystals?
Yes, ionic compounds form crystals as a result of the regular arrangement of positive and negative ions in a repeating pattern. This arrangement is known as a crystal lattice structure and is responsible for the distinct shape and properties of many ionic compounds.
How are formulas for ionic and covalent compounds written?
Formulas for ionic compounds are written by balancing the positive and negative charges of the ions to create a neutral compound. For covalent compounds, the subscripts in the formula indicate the number of atoms of each element present in the molecule.
When struck with a sharp blow ionic compounds tend to what while metallic substances which are what change shape?
"When struck with a sharp blow, ionic compounds tend to (crack) while metallic substances, which are (covalently bonded), change shape."This makes the most sense. A lot of ionic compounds form salts which are crystalline and brittle in solid form. This is obviously homework but what a terrible question, right down to the punctuation.

Do ionic bonds create ionic compounds?

What do you call a compound that is held together by an ionic bond?
most ionic compounds are salt
What do you call compounds that have been formed through ionic bonding?
Ionic compounds.
Do metals make up ionic compounds?
They don't entirely make up ionic compounds. Most ionic compounds contain a metal and at least one nonmetal element, with the metal forming the positive ion. However in a few cases an ionic compound may be made up entirely of nonmetals forming polyatomic ions (e.g. ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3).
Is PO4 an ionic compound?
PO4 is a radical, not a compound, and it has a covalent bond, not an ionic bond.
Are organic compounds formed with ionic bonds?
Organic compounds tend NOT to be ionic - there are exceptions. Organic Chemistry is defined as the Chemistry of Compounds of Carbon. Ionic forces tend to intercede when we add Oxygen.
Is strontium an ionic compound?
