It is a molecule, atoms are only of one type and though both have partial charges due to the way the bond is formed they are not ions in this state.

Why is it not necessary for LiBr to be written as LiBr2?

LiBr exists as a single molecule with one lithium ion and one bromide ion, so there is no need to specify a subscript of 2 for bromide in the chemical formula. The subscript is only used when multiple atoms of an element are present in the compound.


Chemical formula of a fluoride atom?

'Fluoride atom'. ???? The fluorine ATOM is 'F' The fluorine molecule is 'F2'. The Fluoride ION is 'F^-' NB When an atom becomes a charged species, it is no longer an atom , but an ION. The suffix '--ide' indicates it is an ion, not an atom. So 'Fluoride atom' is a nonsense. It is either 'Fluoride ion' or Fluorine atom'.


Is Na atom ion or molecule?
