A base is not simply a substance that reacts with an acid. A base is a substance that accepts or "steals" a hydrogen ion from an acid or produces hydroxide ions (OH-) in water. A metal does neither of these.
Ionic compounds are typically made up of a metal cation and a non-metal anion. The metal cation provides the positive charge, while the non-metal anion provides the negative charge. So, while not all ionic compounds contain a metal, they often do.
Compounds that contain carbon-hydrogen bonding are collectively termed organic compounds. These are simply compounds that would contain hydrogen and carbon elements.
Ionic compounds: NaCl, KOH, CuSO4, etc. Any compound containing a metal and a non-metal. In ionic compounds, metals have positive ions (they lose electrons to the non metal) and non-metals have negative ions (as they gain electrons from the metal) Covalent compounds: CH4, BF3, NH3, all hydrocarbons/ all compounds containing only non-metals.
When oxygen combines with a metal, it forms metal oxides. These can be in the form of various compounds depending on the metal involved. Oxides are chemical compounds where oxygen has a -2 oxidation state.
Ionic compounds form between a metal and a nonmetal. In these compounds, electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal, resulting in the formation of positively charged cations (from the metal) and negatively charged anions (from the nonmetal). These oppositely charged ions then attract each other to form an ionic bond.
No it is a gas. There is a NO3 suppliment for working out called "Chrome" though.
silicon oxide- SiO2
Metal compounds made of two or more metallic elements are usually called ALLOYS. However, there are true compounds and these are often known simply as inter-metallic compounds.
rust
not all compounds arte called salt. only those in which metal and nonmetals combine to form a compound.
Ionic compounds are usually formed between a metal element and a non metal element in most cases. There are some exceptions such as ammonium nitrate though.
A "salt" is another name for ionic compounds
Yes, this is true; the reaction is called neutralization.

Salts as a group do but other compounds do not.
Compounds by definition are not elements at all and therefore cannot be metal elements.
