If that were true, there would be no soluble ionic compounds. Since there are soluble ionic compounds, the answer must be no.
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Barium hydroxide is not a cation or an anion. It is a compound. It is made of barium ions and hydroxide ions.
The chemical formula for the cation in the compound Cr(CO3)2 is Cr2 and for the anion is CO32-.
The chemical formula for the cation in the compound Cr(CO3)3 is Cr3 and for the anion is CO32-.
Typically in writing an ionic compound, the cation is written first, then the anion.
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Insoluble salts are made from the reaction between two soluble salts that form a product that is insoluble in water. This can happen when a cation from one reactant combines with an anion from the other reactant to form an insoluble compound. Examples include lead(II) iodide (PbI2) and silver chloride (AgCl).
Barium hydroxide is not a cation or an anion. It is a compound. It is made of barium ions and hydroxide ions.
neither. it is a compound
The chemical formula for the cation in the compound Cr(CO3)2 is Cr2 and for the anion is CO32-.
The chemical formula for the cation in the compound Cr(CO3)3 is Cr3 and for the anion is CO32-.
An ionic compound contain a cation and an anion.
Yes salt is formed from ionic bonding of a cation and an anion.
No, an ionic compound needs an anion (negative ion) and a cation (positive ion).
A cation is a positively charged ion or compound, whereas anions are negatively charged ion or compound
separately
Neither. It is a chemical compound.
