Question

Which of the following are not ionic
compounds?
O Potassium chloride.
O Carbon tetra chloride.
O Sodium chloride
O Magnesium oxide.​

Answer 1

*Answer :

Carbon tetrachloride is a covalent compound and dissolves in ether and alcohol like organic compounds. Hydrochloric acid is the gas dissolved in water while hydrogen chloride is the gaseous compound which is covalent in nature by its molecular structure. NaCl and KCl are ionic compounds which dissociate into its ions in the aqueous solution.

° Carbon Tetra Chloride. (CCL4)

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon tetrachloride is not an ionic compound.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by transferring (give and take) valence electrons. They can easily dissociate into ions.

For example: NaCl is an ionic compound which dissociates into cation Na+ and anion Cl-

However, non-ionic compounds, also known as covalent compounds, are formed by sharing valence electrons to form a bond. They cannot dissociate into ions.
