It tells you what type of bonding whether; Ionic, Metallic, Covalent Network or Molecular Covalent. It tells you the elements that make up the compound. It also tells you the stage of matter; solid, liquid or gas. And since you known the elements you can find out really anything you want to know about it like; # of protons, # of neutrons, mass number, atomic weight, reactivity, etc.
If it is a molecular compound, the formula indicates the numbers of atoms of each element in one molecule of the compound. If it's an ionic compound, the formula unit indicates the lowest whole number ratio of ions in the compound.
The formula of a chemical compound tells you which elements are in the compound, as well as their relative percentages. for example, H2O (water) indicates that it has two atoms of hydrogen for every atom of oxygen.
a formula tells how many compounds are in a radical and the type of atoms they are
The elements present and the ratio of whole numbers of atoms of those elements combined.
It tells you the elements that make up the compound. It also tells you the stage of matter.
It tells you how many and what elements this compound contains
eg.water's formula is H2O- this shows that it contains 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
The chemical composition of the compound
No. The chemical formula of an ionic compound is a formula unit and represents the lowest whole number ratio of ions in the compound. Ionic compounds are not made of molecules.
simplest ratio of the ions
No; the compound with the formula NH4Br is an ionic compound.
The formula is not ionic or covalent, the compound itself is.
The formula of this compound is KH2PO4.
The structural formula show the spatial aspect of the molecule.
The ratio and types of elements in the compound.
The structural formula show the spatial aspect of the molecule.
No. The chemical formula of an ionic compound is a formula unit and represents the lowest whole number ratio of ions in the compound. Ionic compounds are not made of molecules.
Yes, structural formulae show how the atoms in a compound are arranged. For example, CH3CH2CH2CH3 is the structural formula for butane. Unlike the displayed formula, it does not show the individual bonds that are formed.
simplest ratio of the ions
Its called Chemical formula
CsI.... it's not just a hit TV show, its an ionic compound as well.
It shows numbers and types of atoms that form the compound.
You expand the parenthesis out first. Then simplify the rest.
No; the compound with the formula NH4Br is an ionic compound.
Organic formula is a formula that shows an organic compound and its molecular arrangement.
