Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion-anion bond?

Chemistry

ikadub [295]3 years ago

<em>No, it is impossible</em>. By definition, an ionic compound is a combination of two elements, one of which is a metal while the other is a nonmetal. Together, they form an ionic bond, which is a complete giving and accepting of electrons to satisfy their full octet individually. A cation-cation or anion-anion bond is a different type of bond called covalent bond. This involves sharing of electrons.

Can sedimentation and decantation be used for all types of mixtures? Explain
Bumek [7]

Explanation:

1. Sedimentation and decantation cannot be used for all types of mixtures.

Decantation is a separation technique in which is used to separate immiscible liquids or mixtures containing liquid and solids within them.

In decantation, gravity is used to bring the denser materials to settle at the bottom.

For homogenous mixtures, it is not possible to use decantation. A solution of sugar and water will not decant.

2. Yes, mass of an object reduces the settling time of such object in a mixture.

The higher the mass, the faster the rate of settling. Also, as we know, mass is directly proportional to density. A body with a high density will settle faster in solution.
