Ionic compound - formed when a metal transfers electrons to a nonmetal, resulting in the formation of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged nonmetal ions that are attracted to each other through electrostatic forces.
Nails are metal.
Without knowing the specific element f, it is difficult to determine if it is a metal or nonmetal. Some elements can exhibit properties of both depending on the conditions. Can you provide more information about element f for a more accurate answer?
A nonmetal is an element that tends to be dull, brittle, and a poor conductor of heat and electricity.
Oxidation numbers do not determine if an element is a metal or a nonmetal. The classification of an element as a metal or a nonmetal is based on its position in the periodic table and its physical and chemical properties. Metals are typically found on the left side of the periodic table, while nonmetals are found on the right side.
An ionic compound is a substance composed of a metal ion and a nonmetal ion. The metal ion donates electrons to the nonmetal ion, forming a stable electrostatic attraction between the positively charged metal ion and the negatively charged nonmetal ion. This results in the formation of a lattice structure in the solid state.
Hydroxide is a compound that consists of a metal ion and a hydroxide ion (OH-). The metal ion gives the compound its metallic properties, while the hydroxide ion provides its basic nature.
Metal is metal. Nonmetal is everything else.
Is ceramic metal or nonmetal
Metal - metal compounds don't exist... Only metal-nonmetal and nonmetal-nonmetal
