Rubidium iodide is a salt with a melting point of 642 °C. Its chemical formula is RbI.
Is RbI ionic or covalent?
RbI contains a metal from group 1 and a nonmetal from group 17, so it is an ionic solid containing Rb+ and I− ions. The compound C6(CH3)6 is a hydrocarbon (hexamethylbenzene), which consists of isolated molecules that stack to form a molecular solid with no covalent bonds between them.
Is ICl ionic compound?
Is ICl an ionic bond? Answer: a. Ionic (NaCl is formed from a metal and a nonmetal.) Covalent (ICl is formed from two nonmetals.)
What is the name of the compound RbBr?
Rubidium bromide (RbBr)
How do you name ionic compounds?
For binary ionic compounds (ionic compounds that contain only two types of elements), the compounds are named by writing the name of the cation first followed by the name of the anion. For example, KCl, an ionic compound that contains K+ and Cl- ions, is named potassium chloride.
