Is MgO an ionic compound?

NaCl is the chemical formula unit of sodium chloride. MgO is the chemical formula of magnesium oxide.


Which have the highest boiling point mgo and cao or nacl and hcl or co2 and so2?

MgO and CaO have higher boiling points compared to NaCl and HCl, and CO2 and SO2. This is because MgO and CaO are ionic compounds that have stronger electrostatic forces between ions, leading to higher boiling points. NaCl and HCl are also ionic compounds but have lower boiling points compared to MgO and CaO. CO2 and SO2 are molecular compounds with weaker intermolecular forces, resulting in lower boiling points compared to the ionic compounds.


Is NaCl has greater lattice energy than MgO?

because Mg and O have more electropositivity and electronegativity rspt. than Na and Cl atoms.


MgO has the same crystal structure as NaCl face-centered cubic How many oxide ions surround each Mg2 plus ion as nearest neighbors?

Each magnesium ion in MgO is surrounded by six oxide ions as nearest neighbors in a face-centered cubic crystal structure.


Which substance doesn't have ionic bond in the following.1.CH4.2.NaCl.3.NaF.4.Mgo?

CH4 (methane) does not have an ionic bond. It is a covalent compound where the carbon and hydrogen atoms share electrons to form bonds. The other substances listed (NaCl, NaF, MgO) have ionic bonds where electrons are transferred from one atom to another.


What is a non example of a covalent compound?

Ionic compounds are salts or oxides as NaCl, LiF, MgCl2, MgO, UCl4, ThO2, CsCl, CaCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3.

How many moles are in 106 grams of MgO?

To determine the number of moles in 106 grams of MgO, you need to divide the given mass by the molar mass of MgO. The molar mass of MgO is 40.3 g/mol (24.3 g/mol for Mg + 16 g/mol for O). Thus, 106 g / 40.3 g/mol = approximately 2.63 moles of MgO.


How many moles are present in 1g of MgO?

2 Mg(OH)2 have 10 atoms.
