An ionic compound is formed between cations and anions. Typically, the cation
is a metal and the anion is a nonmetal. In this case LiCl is the ionic compound. -
answer-LiCl
Li + Cl-
In general an ionic bond forms between atoms classified as: - answer-Metals
and nonmetals interact to form ionic compounds.
In an ionic bond electrons are: - answer-In an ionic compound, electrons are
transferred, forming a cation and an anion. The cation and anion are then held
together by electrostatic forces (think opposites attract).
Sodium Phosphate - answer-Na3PO4, Contact solution
Sodium Chloride - answer-NaCl, Skincare products
Sodium Bicarbonate - answer-NaHCO3, Deodorant
, A good indication that you have an ionic compound is that you have the
interaction between atoms classified as metals forming cations with those
classified as nonmetals forming anions. Polyatomic ions can also act as cations
or anions in ionic compounds. - answer-Mg3P2, CaO, and CaSO4 are all ionic
compounds. The other options do not contain either a metal or a polyatomic
ion.
What would be the name of the compound with the name Na2O? - answer-For
naming simple ionic compounds, we give the first atom the elemental name
and the second atom uses the element name using the ~ide suffix. Na2O is
sodium oxide.
Na3PO4 would be named as - answer-When naming an ionic compound
containing a polyatomic ion, the polyatomic ion keeps the original name. We
also do not use any prefixes in ionic compounds. Na3PO4 is sodium phosphate.
I would expect the compound NaBr to: - answer-Be sure to review the
properties of ionic compounds as they are different from the properties of
other molecules you will be studying and we want to be able to contrast these
properties. Ionic compounds dissolve in water, have crystalline structure, are
hard/brittle, and conduct electricity in water.
When naming an ionic compound containing a polyatomic ion, the polyatomic
ion keeps the original name. If the nonmetal anion is an element, we instead
use the ~ide suffix. - answer-Na3N is sodium nitride, NaNO3 is sodium nitrate,
NaNO2 is sodium nitrite, NaBr is sodium bromide, and Na2CO3 is sodium
carbonate.
