What is the formula of the ionic compound composed of cations and chloride anions?
It depends on the charge of the cation. Examples NaCl, MgCl2, FeCl3
What type of compound does cations and anions compose?
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
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 type of ions form an ionic compound?
cations and anions
Why ions remain together in a compound?
The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.
In an ionic compound the attractions between cations and what hold the compound together?
The anions.
In an ionic compound the attractions between cations and hold the compound together?
The anions.
What is the formula of the ionic compound composed of cations and chloride anions?

Is The compound calcium nitrate is composed of calcium cations and nitrate anions?
Yes. Ca(NO3)2=Ca2++2NO3-
What type of compound does cations and anions compose?
Cations and anions compse ionic chemical compounds.
Cations and anions similar?
No, cations have a positive charge and have lost electrons. Anions have a negative charge and have gained electrons. In an ionic compound anions and cations attract each other due to opposite charges.
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 type of ions form an ionic compound?
cations and anions
What type of compound is composed of negatively and postively charge atoms?
Ionic compounds are made up of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
Is an ionic compound composed of anions and cations but is electrically neutral?
Yes. Ionic compounds contain anions and cations in proportions that balance the charges making samples of the compound electrically neutral. Examples are NaCl, ions Na+ Cl- , proportions 1:1 CaCl2,ions Ca2+ Cl- , proportions 1:2
What are Two compounds combine to create a binary compound?
Cations and anions
What do cations and anions come together to form?
salt
