Nickel sulfate is an ionic compound though it has covalent bonds within the sulfate ion itself.
An ionic compound is composed of metal and a nonmetal. Therefore NBr3 is a covalent compound, because it is made up of two nonmetals.
metallice bonding ================ Rather than metallic bonding, some might assume the bonds between copper and sulfate to be ionic. Keep in mind that there are no 100% ionic compounds. Bonds are not either ionic or covalent. Instead bonds like along a continuum and have characteristics of both. The bonds within the sulfate ion are clearly more covalent than ionic. So we are more concerned about the bonds between copper and oxygen. We can determine the percent ionic character in a bond from the electronegativity difference and this equation: %ionic character = 100(1-e(-DEN^2/4)) The electronegativity difference between copper and oxygen is 1.54. That translates to a bond that is about 45% ionic. Therefore, the bonds in copper (II) sulfate are more covalent than they are ionic. The bottom line is that solid copper (II) sulfate exists in a lattice of SO4 units and copper atoms in which the copper atoms are polar covalently bonded to oxygen.
Sodium sulfate is an ionic compound, consisting of Na+ and SO4^2- ions, held together by ionic bonds. It does not exist as individual molecules like covalent compounds do, so it does not have a molecular formula.
nickel sulfate + sodium carbonate -> sodium sulfate + nickel carbonate
ICl3 is covalent N2O is covalent LiCl is ionic
Nickel (II) sulfate forms ionic bonds. In this compound, nickel (Ni) donates electrons to the sulfate (SO4^2-) ion, creating electrostatic attractions between the positively charged nickel ions and the negatively charged sulfate ions.
Covalent
No, NiSO4 is not covalent. It is an ionic compound because it is composed of a metal, nickel(Ni), and non-metal, sulfur(S) and oxygen(O). Ionic compounds are formed through the transfer of electrons between the metal and non-metal atoms.
No, it is Ionic.
Ferrous sulfate is both ionic and covalent: The iron cations and polyatomic sulfate anions are ionically bonded, but the internal bonds within the sulfate anions are covalent.
No, nickel sulfide does not have covalent bonds. Nickel sulfide typically forms ionic bonds due to the difference in electronegativity between nickel and sulfur.
Copper (II) sulfate is ionically bonded.
Nickel phosphate is an ionic compound.
The ionic formula for nickel (II) and hydrogen sulfate is NiSO4.
Potassium sulfate is an ionic compound. It is made up of positively charged potassium ions (K+) and negatively charged sulfate ions (SO4^2-), which are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction.
It is ionic
Copper sulfate is an ionic bond. This is because copper is a metal, and oxygen and sulfur are non metals.
