When a nonmetal bonds with a nonmetal it forms what?
A covalent compound
What is it called when a nonmetal bonds with a nonmetal?
When a nonmetal bonds with a nonmetal, it forms a covalent compound. One common example of these compounds is glucose.
When an elemental metal combines with an elemental nonmetal it forms?
binary ionic compound
Rust forms because iron and oxygen are highly elements.?
Rusting is an oxydation reaction; in this case oxygen (a nonmetal) react with iron (a metal). Oxygen is a very reactive chemical element.
What makes an ionic compound?
An ionic compound generally forms from a metal and a nonmetal. The nonmetal oxidizes the metal, forming a metal cation and a nonmetal anion. They ions are held together by the electrical attraction. Ions often bond in latticed structures to form crystals.
When a nonmetal bonds with a nonmetal it forms what?
