What type of ions form an ionic compound?
cations and anions
What type of bond is K2SO4?
Ionic, K2SO4 has K+ cations and SO42- anions. The sulfate anions contain covalent bonds.
What type of ions do ionic compounds contain?
Mad up of positively charge cations and negatively charged anions.
Does the atomic no of an element change when its atom get converted into cations or anions?
no, it is still the same element just a different type
How are cations different in each type of binary compound?
These cations may be derived from different chemical elements.
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.
What type of ions does the pH scale measure?
The measurement is for cations and anions.
What type of compound does not have cations or anions?
Compounds with covalent bonds form molecules not ions Compounds consisting of non-metals bonded to nonmetals do not form ions
How are the cations different in each type of binary compound?
cations in a compound are always positive.
What type of bond is K2SO4?
Ionic, K2SO4 has K+ cations and SO42- anions. The sulfate anions contain covalent bonds.
What are the ions on the periodic table?
cations and anions
What is an antifluorite?
An antifluorite is a type of crystal structure in which the cations and anions in a crystal lattice are arranged in a specific pattern. In an antifluorite structure, the anions occupy the positions that cations would normally occupy, and vice versa. This results in a reversed or "anti" arrangement compared to the more common structure of fluorite.

Will anions alone in a solution conduct electricity or do both anions and cations need to be present?
Anions alone in a solution could conduct electricity, if they were in contact with suitable electrodes. In general, however, anions alone in solution cannot exist for long, because the electrical potential of the resulting solution would be too high to be stable. One of the few practical exceptions occurs when cations can not dissolve because they are part of a polymer that has too high a molecular weight to be soluble in water, but the anions are soluble. If a polymer of this type is made into a thin and porous membrane, the anions can conduct electricity through the membrane, but only between the membrane and (i) an electrode or (ii) a solution that contains both anions and cations.
