What is different about the solubility of a covalently bonded compound and an ionic compound?
An ionic compound is more soluble than a covalently bonded compound.
Why does 0.300 M KCl have a higher boiling point that 0.500 M glucose?
KCl is an ionic compound and glucose is a molecular compound. Ionic compounds have higher boiling points than molecular compounds.
True or false A common ion is common to one or more ionic compounds?
True. A common ion is an ion that is found in more than one ionic compound. These ions are shared among different compounds, which can affect their solubility and reactivity in solutions.
Why would an ionic compound be more likely to dissolve in water than oil?
An ionic compound can form interactions with water. Water happens to be a polar molecule. The positive ions are going to react with the partially charged negative ions (that are in the water). The negative ions will react with the partially positive charged hydrogen atoms in the water. But the ionic compound won't dissolve in oil because it can't form the same reaction.
Why CuS is covalent compound while CuO is ionic compound?
Not sure about your examples but electronegativity variance is a good rule of thumb for deciding ionic from covalent bonds. Electronegativity variance less than 1.4, generally much less, indicates a covalent bonding. Electronegativity variance greater than 1.4 indicates ionic bonding.
What is different about the solubility of a covalently bonded compound and an ionic compound?
An ionic compound is more soluble than a covalently bonded compound.
IS Cr2O3 molecular or ionic compound?
It is ionic compound as the difference in the electronegativity between chromium and oxygen is more than 1.7
Is NF3 ionic?
N is less electronegative than F. Therefore, NF3 is considered a covalent compound rather than an ionic compound.
Why would the melting point of a molecular compound generally be lower than an ionic compound?
The ionic bond is stronger.
Would silicon and nitrogen form an ionic compound?
Silicon and nitrogen typically do not form an ionic compound as both elements are nonmetals and tend to share electrons to form covalent bonds. In this case, they are more likely to form covalent compounds rather than an ionic compound.
Is MgO a ionic compound?
No. MgO is a compound called magnesium oxide. It is composed of two elements: magnesium and oxygen.Hint: if the chemical formula contains more than one capital latter than the substance is not an element.
What would fluorine have to combine with to form an ionic compound?
If fluorine combines with an element such that their electronegativity difference is more than 1.7, then they will form an ionic compound. Example:- Hydrogen fluoride is an ionic compound. Hydrogen has electronegativity of 2.1 and fluorine has 4.0. So, the difference is 1.9. Therefore, it is an ionic compound.
Is a ionic compound likely to form between fluorine and chlorine?
No, fluorine and chlorine are both nonmetals with a high electronegativity difference, so they are more likely to form a covalent bond rather than an ionic compound.
Is a dime an ionic compound?
No. A dime is a mixture of metals, not a compound, nor does a dime contain any ionic compounds.
Is iron oxide a binary ionic compound?
No, iron oxide is not a binary ionic compound. It is a type of chemical compound composed of iron and oxygen atoms, with the iron usually existing in more than one oxidation state. Binary ionic compounds consist of only two elements: a metal and a nonmetal.
Is CrO2 an ionic or covalent bond?
Chromium oxide (Cr2O3) is an ionic compound, since it is made up of a metal and a nonmetal.
Is aluminum selenide ionic or covalent?
Aluminum selenide is an ionic compound. Aluminum being a metal tends to lose electrons, while selenium being a nonmetal tends to gain electrons, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond between the two elements.
