Ionic Bonding Practice Flashcard #2 (Includes Transition Metals)

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, typically between a metal and a non-metal.

The charge of the nickel ion in nickel (III) sulfide is +3.

The formula for the ionic compound formed between barium and iodine is BaI₂.

The name of a compound with transition metals includes the oxidation state of the metal in Roman numerals, e.g., iron (II) chloride for FeCl₂.

The oxidation state of manganese in manganese (III) sulfide is +3.

The formula for gold (IV) phosphide is Au₃P₄.

The name of Cr₂O₃ is chromium (III) oxide.

Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons and consist of ions, while covalent compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms.

Roman numerals indicate the oxidation state of the transition metal in the compound.

The name of the compound Ni₂S₃ is nickel (III) sulfide.
