Is sulfur hexachloride ionic or molecular?

Answer 1

This compound is generally considered covalent, because sulfur is not known to form any cation with a charge of +6, as would be required for the compound to be ionic, since fluoride ion always has a charge of -1.

Answer 2

Covalent. Ionic bonds happen between Metals and Non Metals. Bonds between Non metals are covalent

Answer 3

Covalent as both elements are nonmetals and their electronegativity is not that variant.

Answer 4

All of the compounds composed of just sulfur and oxygen have only covalent bonds. They are all molecular with the exception of some recently discovered polymeric compounds.

Answer 5

It is covalent compound. BUT the bond between sulfur and fluorine is polar.

Answer 6

Sulfur hexachloride is a molecular compound because it is composed of nonmetals (sulfur and chlorine) bonded together through covalent bonds.

Answer 7

Molecular

Answer 8

covalent

Answer 9
