What else can I help you with?
Which are polyatomic ion?
For example no3 or co3 are all polyatomic ions
Ions that are made of more than one atom are examples of what?
Ions made up of more than one atom are called polyatomic ions.
Are a vast majority of polyatomic ions cations?
No. Most polyatomic ions are anions.
What are the polyatomic ions?
polyatomic ions are those ions which carry more than one atom,we can say that a group of atoms having single charge( which may be positive or negative) are polyatomic ions.
What of polyatomic ions has a single minus charge?
Nitrate Cyanide Hydroxide Acetate
Predominantly what type of bonding is within polyatomic ions?
Covalent bonding is predominantly within polyatomic ions.
Polyatomic ions always carry a positive charge?
False. Polyatomic ions can carry either charge. For example, consider the sulphate ion - SO42- or the hydroxide ion, OH-. Negative polyatomic ions are, in fact, generally more common than positive ones.
Ions formed out of molecules are referred to as what?
Ions formed out of molecules are referred to as polyatomic ions. These ions are composed of multiple atoms that are covalently bonded together, but have an overall charge due to the loss or gain of electrons. They can have a positive or negative charge depending on the number of electrons gained or lost.
How are polyatomic ions similar to their constituent ions?
They are not similar.
How does polyatomic ions show covalent and ionic bonding?
A polyatomic ion is charged and will form ionic bonds; for example, the sulfate ion SO42- forms many compounds, such as sodium sulfate. The bonds holding polyatomic ions together are covalent.
What leads to an ionic compound with polyatomic ions?
An ionic compound with polyatomic ions is formed through the attraction between positively charged metal ions and negatively charged polyatomic ions. Polyatomic ions are covalently bonded groups of atoms that have an overall charge, making them act as a single charged unit in the formation of ionic compounds.
Ions that are made of more then one atom?
polyatomic ions
