It is considered an ionic bond because copper is a metal and bromine is a nonmetal. However, with an electronegativity difference of less than 1.0, the compound will have some covalent character.

What is the balanced equation for copper 2 bromine?

copper 2 bromine is not a chemical name. copper and bromine are both elements. the term "copper 2" suggests divalent copper, ie copper in the Cu++ state. Bromine is almost always a monovalent anion, ie Br-. Copper bromide is then one copper ion and two bromine ions together forming CuBr2.

How many ions in copper II bromide?

copper has 29 protons, when dealing with Cu^2+ all that means is it lost two electrons. so now the element has 29 protons and 27 electrons. Protons are positive and electrons are negative and neutrons are neutral. So say you had an element X^2- then you have gained two more electrons so the element has an overall negative charge. hope that helps
