I need help with nomenclature in my chemistry class. can you help? I dont understand why some ionic compounds include an oxygen atom when they arent even in the formula. such as sodium nitrate?
Many common ionic compounds contain ions that are themselves composed of a group of covalently bonded atoms with an overall charge. True or false? Give some examples?
Another important piece of information we can get from the chemical formula is if the compound is ionic or covalent. Ionic compounds, generally, have elements that gain or lose electrons to hold opposite charges to create an attraction, while covalent have only nonmetals that share their electrons. This is a pretty important distinction and for the most part, ionic compounds are going to be made from metals and a nonmetal or a metal and a polyatomic ion - seeing a metal in the formula is a pretty good indicator if the substance is ionic or not. Given the compounds below, which one is most likely to be ionic?   Options:   Cl2   CO2   Na3PO4   C6H12O6
