The two types of binary compounds are ionic compounds, which consist of a metal and a nonmetal, and covalent compounds, which consist of two nonmetals sharing electrons.
No, binary ionic compounds are made up of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged nonmetal ions. While metals can form ionic compounds with nonmetals, not all metals are involved in forming binary ionic compounds.
True. Most salts are binary ionic compounds composed of a metal cation and a nonmetal anion.
yes, but not all salts are binary ionic compounds
Al2O3 is a binary ionic compound, while N2O3 is a binary covalent compound. Binary ionic compounds consist of a metal and a nonmetal, while binary covalent compounds consist of two nonmetals.
