Explanation:
Molecular compounds : Molecular compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons with each elements.
Ionic compound : When compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons, they are called Ionic compounds.
Atomic species : Species comprised of only atom.
Co2 -- Molecular
C -- Atomic
CaCl2 -- Ionic
C6H12O6 --- Molecular
KBr --- Ionic
PbS ---- Ionic
The above compounds can be classified as;
CO₂- Molecular compound
C - Atomic compound
CaCl₂ - ionic compound
C₆H₁₂O₆ - Molecular compound
KBr - Ionic compound
PbS - Ionic compound
Further Explanation:
A compound
- A compound is a substances that contains two or more different atoms that are bonded together.
- When the atoms are similar the substance is known as a molecule, therefore not all molecules are compounds.
Types of compounds
Ionic compounds
- Ionic compounds are compounds that contain ions. They are as a result of ionic bonding between a metal atom and a non-metal atom.
- During ionic bonding formation the metallic atom looses electrons while the non-metallic atom gains electrons.
- Ionic compounds contains both negatively charged ion(anion) and positively charged ion (cation).
- Examples of ionic compounds, NaCl, LiF, KCl, Cs2S, KBr, PbS etc.
Molecular compounds
- Molecular compounds are covalent compounds that are formed when atoms of elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules.
- Molecular covalent compounds are formed between non-metal atoms as a result of covalent bond between non-metal atoms.
- These compounds are electrically neutral.
- Examples of molecular compounds include; CO₂, H₂O, NO, SF₆, etc.
Atomic covalent compounds
- Atomic compounds are also an example of covalent compounds that result from sharing of electrons between non-metal atoms in a covalent bond.
- Usually atoms of the same element such as carbon are joined together by a covalent bond.
- Examples of such compounds are, diamond and graphite.
