Question

which chemical formula shows an ionic compound?
n₂o
co₂
c₆h₁₂o₆
nacl

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a non - metal. In \(N_2O\), \(CO_2\), and \(C_6H_{12}O_6\), the bonding is covalent (sharing of electrons between non - metals). In \(NaCl\), sodium (\(Na\), a metal) donates an electron to chlorine (\(Cl\), a non - metal), forming an ionic bond.

Answer:

\(NaCl\)
