What is the molecular shape of OCL2?
The molecular shape of OCl2 is bent or V-shaped. This is because it has one lone pair of electrons on the central oxygen atom, causing the two chlorine atoms to be pushed closer together. This results in a bent geometry.
Is sodium iodide formed by an ionic or molecular bond?
Sodium iodide is formed by an ionic bond. In an ionic bond, one atom donates an electron (sodium) while the other atom receives it (iodine), resulting in the formation of a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged iodide ion that are held together by electrostatic forces.
Is ammonium phosphate ionic or molecular?
Ammonium phosphate is an ionic compound. It is formed through the combination of the ammonium ion (NH4+) and the phosphate ion (PO43-), which are both charged species that form an ionic bond.
What type of bond ionic or molecular and polar or non polar is sodium iodide and carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas?
Sodium iodide has ionic bonds, which are always polar. Carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas both have molecular (covalent) bonds; the ones in carbon dioxide are polar and those in elemental hydrogen molecules (H2) are nonpolar.
Is C2H5OH molecular or ionic?
This is Ammonium acetate and it's an ionic compound. The first element in an Ionic compound's formula is usually a metal because ionic compounds consist of a cation and an anion binding. The only common exception to this rule is is ammonium. Not only is it ionic but its a polyatomic ionic compound.
