SO3 is a compound and therefore is neither a metal nor a nonmetal, because these are types of chemical elements, not of compounds. This particular compound consists of two nonmetal elements, sulfur and oxygen.

What compounds has an ionic bond SO3 CO2 NaCl HCl?

SO3 does not form ionic bonds; it forms covalent bonds. CO2 also forms covalent bonds due to its molecular structure. NaCl and HCl both have ionic bonds because they are formed between a metal (Na) and a nonmetal (Cl) in NaCl, and a metal (H) and a nonmetal (Cl) in HCl.


Is trioxide a metal or nonmetal?

Trioxide refers to a chemical compound that contains three oxygen atoms. It is not classified as a metal or nonmetal but rather as a type of oxide, which can be formed with various elements, including both metals and nonmetals. The classification depends on the element that combines with the three oxygen atoms. For example, sulfur trioxide (SO3) is a nonmetal oxide, while iron trioxide (Fe2O3) is a metal oxide.

What does metal oxide and nonmetal oxide produces?

Metal oxides typically produce basic solutions when dissolved in water, while nonmetal oxides usually produce acidic solutions when dissolved in water. This is because metal oxides react with water to form hydroxide ions, increasing the pH, whereas nonmetal oxides react with water to form hydronium ions, decreasing the pH.
