Question

Which of the statements are true ONLY for lonic compounds? (select all that apply)

Smallest unit is called a formula unit
Bonding determined by valence electrons and the octet rule
Compounds are electrically neutral (no charge) overall
Forms between a metal and a nonmetal
Compounds have relatively weak bonds
Creates geometrical shapes that minimize electron pair repulsion (VSPER model)
Forms between two non-metals
Formed by the transfer of electrons
Good conductor when dissolved in water
Formed when atoms share valence electrons
Smallest unit is a molecule
