Yes it is an ionic compound. Rubidium(Rb) is the cation with 1+ charge and Fluorine(F) is the anion with 1- charge. They are formed by the donation of one electron from the valence shell of Rubidium to Fluorine and hence they form an ionic bond, which is the electrostatic force of attration between two oppositely charged particles.

Is F-F ionic or covalent bond?

The F-F bond (in F2) is covalent, and non polar covalent at that.


Is b-f bond covalent?

No, it is not a covalent bond. It is an Ionic bond.


Is the bond between K and F covalent?

The bond between K and F is not covalent; it is an ionic bond. Potassium (K) is a metal and fluorine (F) is a nonmetal, so they tend to form ionic bonds by transferring electrons.


What type of bond does Cl and F have?

The bond between F and Cl is a polar covalent bond. Fluorine is very electronegative and Cl is not as much. The difference is large enough to be considered polar.


Is the electron pair C-F considered ionic?

Typically carbon forms a covalent, not ionic bond.


Is BeF2 is ionic or covalent?

BeF2 is a covalent compound. Beryllium (Be) is a metal and fluorine (F) is a non-metal, which results in a polar covalent bond between them.


Would Na and F form a polar covalent bond?

Yes, Na and F would form an ionic bond rather than a polar covalent bond. This is because Na tends to donate one electron to F, resulting in the formation of Na+ and F- ions which are held together by electrostatic attractions.

Is AIF3 a ionic or covalent bond?

AlF3 has both ionic and covalent characteristics. The bond between Al and F is primarily ionic due to the electronegativity difference between the two elements. However, there is also some covalent character as the fluorine atoms can accept some electron density from aluminum.


What type of bond does hydrogen and bromine form?

Halogens form both ionic and covalent bonds.


Is F-1 an ionic bond?

No, F-1 does not represent an ionic bond. F-1 typically represents a fluoride ion (F-) with a charge of -1, which is an example of a covalent bond where fluorine shares electrons with other atoms rather than transferring them.


What type of bond does Cl and Cl have?

Cl and F form ionic bond when they combine with metals and form covalent bond when combined with non-metals.
