Do Chlorine and Oxygen form an ionic compound?

Chlorine and oxygen do not typically form an ionic compound. Chlorine tends to form covalent compounds, like chlorine gas (Cl2), while oxygen typically forms covalent compounds like oxygen gas (O2) or diatomic oxygen.


Can oxygen be liberated from all oxygen containing compounds?

No, oxygen cannot be liberated from all oxygen-containing compounds. Some compounds contain oxygen in a very stable form, such as in water (H2O), where the oxygen is tightly bound to hydrogen. Releasing oxygen from these compounds would require significant energy input.


What can form compounds from nitrogen in the air?

Nitrogen in the air can form compounds with other elements, such as oxygen (to form nitrogen oxides), hydrogen (to form ammonia), and carbon (to form cyanide). These compounds play important roles in various chemical reactions and processes in the environment.


What do silver nitrogen and oxygen make?

Silver does not readily react with nitrogen or oxygen to form stable compounds under normal conditions. However, silver can react with nitrogen and oxygen compounds in specific conditions to form various silver compounds.


Does sulfur and oxygen form ionic compounds?

Sulfur and oxygen can form compounds, but typically they form covalent compounds instead of ionic compounds. This is because both sulfur and oxygen are nonmetals, which tend to share electrons rather than transfer them to form ions. Examples of covalent compounds between sulfur and oxygen include sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfur trioxide (SO3).

What compounds do nonmetals form when they burn in oxygen?

Nonmetals burning in oxygen form covalent type compounds, as compared to metals which form ionic compounds.


Does oxygen naturally form compounds?

yes. If the metal is reactive enough then oxygen naturally forms compounds.(oxides)


Do Chlorine and Oxygen form an ionic compound?

Why Oxygen and chlorine are not ionic compounds?

Oxygen and chlorine are each elements, not compounds. They combined to form a number of covalent compounds because they are both nonmetals.


What compounds does einsteinium form?

Up today are known compounds of einsteinium with oxygen and halogens.


Does oxygen exist on its own or as a compound?

Oxygen can exist on its own as a diatomic molecule, O2, or it can form compounds with other elements. In nature, oxygen is commonly found in both elemental form and in various compounds.

Are oxygen and hydrogen compounds or molecules?

Hydrogen and oxygen are elements that usually take the form of molecules.
