What else can I help you with?
A compound must have at least one metal atom and one non metal atom?
No. Chemical compounds contain two or more different elements. H2O is a compound that does not contain a metal.There are many other examples, all the organic compounds for instance.
What elements are in non polar compounds?
Non metals only. Can be a compound of a same element throughout like S8 or a compound of C and H2
What are the non metals?
Minerals that do not contain a metallic element.
What area of the periodic table contains elements that form cation in ionic compounds?
Hydrogen only participates in ionic bonds.
What is inorganic compounds?
hardens, specific gravity and color.
Are molecular compounds usually non-metals?
Yes, most molecular compounds do not contain metals. (The term "nonmetal" properly applies only to elements, not compounds.)
Are ionic compounds make of nonmetallic elements?
Generally ioic compounds contain metals and non metals. However the compound NH4Cl is ionic, and contains NH4+ and Cl- ,and all of the elements are non-metals.
What is a compound composed only of non metals?
A compound composed only of nonmetals is called a covalent compound. These compounds are formed by sharing electrons between atoms, rather than transferring them as in ionic compounds. Examples include carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
Examples of ionic and covalent compounds?
Ionic compounds: NaCl, KOH, CuSO4, etc. Any compound containing a metal and a non-metal. In ionic compounds, metals have positive ions (they lose electrons to the non metal) and non-metals have negative ions (as they gain electrons from the metal) Covalent compounds: CH4, BF3, NH3, all hydrocarbons/ all compounds containing only non-metals.
What compounds are formed with the element of chlorine?
chlorine forms ionic compounds with metals and covalent compounds with non-metals.
What element forms compounds with nonmetals?
Metals form compounds very easily with non-metals.
Inorganic compounds do not contain?
Inorganic compounds do not contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds, which are the defining feature of organic compounds. Examples of inorganic compounds include salts, metals, minerals, and non-carbon-based compounds like water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3).
Which non-metals show only one oxidation number when they form compounds?
oxygen and fluorine
What is the oxidation number of non metals?
The oxidation number of non-metals can vary depending on the element and the compound it is in. Generally, non-metals tend to have negative oxidation numbers when they form compounds with metals, but they can also have positive oxidation numbers when they form compounds with other non-metals.
A compound must have at least one metal atom and one non metal atom?
No. Chemical compounds contain two or more different elements. H2O is a compound that does not contain a metal.There are many other examples, all the organic compounds for instance.
What are ferrous metal and non ferrous?
Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, such as steel and cast iron. Non-ferrous metals do not contain iron, such as aluminum, copper, and tin. Ferrous metals are typically magnetic, while non-ferrous metals are not.
What is made when you add metals and non metals?
Metals and nonmetals form ionic compounds.
