Group 15 elemnts, N, P, do form ionic compounds, nitrides and phosphides, N3- and P3- ions the heavier elements arsenic antimony and bismuth also form -ide compounds some arsenides are mainly ionic but the antimonides and bismuthides are less so. Wikipedia entries on the arsenides, antimonides and bismuthides are not very good so use a text book!
What else can I help you with?
What type of elements will generally form ionic bonds?
Metals forms ionic bonds.
What is the elements sodium and carbon form chemical bonds?
they form the ionic compound sodium carbide
What type of bonds do Group 1A and Group 7A elements make?
Group 1A elements, known as alkali metals, typically form ionic bonds with Group 7A elements, which are halogens. This occurs when the alkali metal donates an electron to the halogen, resulting in the formation of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions. The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of ionic compounds, such as sodium chloride (NaCl).
What kind of elements forms anions after ionic bondings?
Most of the elements in the top right of the period table (but not "group 8" - the furthest column to the right) will readily form anions (negatively charged ions) that can then form ionic bonds. Examples are O, N, P and S
Elements that form bonds by electron sharing would be called?
it is called IONIC compound
Can Group 6 and Group 7 elements only form covalent bonds?
No, Group 6 and Group 7 elements can form a variety of bonds, including covalent, ionic, and metallic bonds. The tendency to form covalent bonds increases as you move across the period from Group 1 to Group 7. Group 6 elements, such as oxygen and sulfur, commonly form covalent bonds, while Group 7 elements, such as chlorine and fluorine, tend to form ionic bonds with metals.
Why do elements in group 4A do not form ionic bonds?
Group-14 elements share electrons. they form covalent bonds.
Why do group 4a elements tend to form covalent bonds?
Group 4A elements have 4 valence electrons, which allows them to form strong covalent bonds by sharing electrons with other atoms. This sharing of electrons helps them achieve a full outer electron shell, making them more stable. Additionally, group 4A elements are not as electronegative as elements in other groups, making them more likely to form covalent bonds instead of ionic bonds.
Which of these elements would form an ionic compound with lithium?
Almost every non metal except the elements in group 18 can make ionic bonds with lithium.
What type of elements will generally form ionic bonds?
Metals forms ionic bonds.
Can group 1 and 2 elements become cations when they form ionic bonds?
Yes, group 1 and 2 elements can become cations when they form ionic bonds. Group 1 elements, such as sodium, readily lose one electron to become sodium cations with a +1 charge. Group 2 elements, such as magnesium, lose two electrons to become magnesium cations with a +2 charge in ionic compounds.
Which group of elemens lose 2 valence electrons when heir atoms form ionic bonds?
The elements in columns 2 and 12 of a wide form periodic table will lose 2 valence electrons when the elements form ionic bonds. (Some other elements also have or can have this property.)
Do metalic elements and non-metalic elements form ionic bonds?
These bonds tend to be ionic. However, all bonds are somewhere between purely ionic and purely covalent.
Why is group 13 described as the swing group in the periodic table?
Because Group 13 elements form both ionic and covalent bonds readily.
Which pair of elements is more likely to form ionic compounds?
Group 1 or group 2 elements with group 16 or group 17 elements. In general, if the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is more than 1.7 in Pauling's scale, then the two atoms form ionic bond.
How can you tell the number of covalent bonds an element can form?
You can determine the number of covalent bonds an element can form by looking at its group number on the periodic table. Elements in group 4 can typically form 4 covalent bonds, elements in group 5 can form 3 bonds, elements in group 6 can form 2 bonds, and elements in group 7 can form 1 bond.
What forms an ionic compound?
The elements that generally form ionic bonds are the metals and nonmetals.
