Is Monopotassium Phosphate ionic or molecular?

tricalcium phosphate is an ionic compound do to the fact that it is the bonding of a metal and a nonmetal. it is usually only a molecular compound if it is a bond between two nonmetals such as oxygen and hydrogen.


Is sodium tripolyphosphate a ionic compound?

Short answer both ionic and covalent! The bond between the sodium (metal) and phosphate (PO43-) (nonmetal) is ionic. The bonds between the phosphorous (nonmetal) and the oxygen (nonmetal) atoms are all covalent. The trick is to treat a covalent compound (PO43-, CO32-, etc) as grouped together when balancing charges, looking for ionic bonds, etc.


Is Sodium aluminum phosphate an ionic compound?

Ionic =) ================== You might think the bonds are ionic if you believe the misconception that all metal-nonmetal compounds contain ions, and are thus "ionic." The bonds in Na3P have only 33% ionic character, meaning the bonds have much greater covalent character than ionic character. There are no 100% ionic bonds, and in Na3P there are no Na+ ions nor P^3- ions. Nor are P^3- ions produced when Na3P reacts with water. Phosphine gas is liberated from a solution of sodium hydroxide. The reaction is very exothermic. Na3P(s) + 3HOH(l) --> 3NaOH(aq) + PH3(g) --- Pisgahchemist


Is ammonium phosphate ionic or molecular?

Ammonium phosphate is an ionic compound. It is formed through the combination of the ammonium ion (NH4+) and the phosphate ion (PO43-), which are both charged species that form an ionic bond.

Is dipotassium phosphate ionic or covalent?

Dipotassium phosphate is an ionic compound. It is made up of potassium cations (K+) and phosphate anions (PO4^3-), which are held together by ionic bonds.


Is MgPO4 a ionic or covalent bond?

Magnesium Phosphate is an ionic molecule, it has a positively charged metal (Magnesium) and a negatively charged nonmetal portion (phosphate group) with a net zero charge since the charges cancel each other out.


Is tricalcium phosphate ionic or covalent?

it is ionic because calcium is a metal and phosphorus is a gas.


Is copper (I) phosphate ionic or covalent?

Copper(I) phosphate is an ionic compound. Copper(I) is a cation with a +1 charge, and phosphate is an anion with a -3 charge. The ionic bonding between these oppositely charged ions results in the formation of an ionic compound.


Is Pb3(PO4)4 ionic or covalent bond?

Pb3(PO4)4 contains both ionic and covalent bonds. The bond between lead (Pb) and phosphate (PO4) ions is ionic, while the bonds within the phosphate ion itself (P-O bonds) are covalent.


Does P2O5 contain ionic bonds?

Yes, P2O5 contains both covalent and ionic bonds. The P-O bonds within the phosphate groups are mostly covalent, while the interactions between the phosphate groups and the metal ions are ionic in nature.


Is trisodium phosphate covalent or ionic?

Trisodium phosphate is an ionic compound. It is composed of sodium cations (Na+) and phosphate anions (PO4^3-), which are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction.
