Which pair of elements is most likely to form an ionic compound based on periodic trends? Potassium (K) and Bromine (Br) Nitrogen (N) and Oxygen (O) Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H) Iron (Fe) and Nickel (Ni)
Added by Robert C.
Step 1
- Potassium (K) is an alkali metal (metal). - Bromine (Br) is a halogen (nonmetal). - Nitrogen (N) and Oxygen (O) are both nonmetals. - Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H) are both nonmetals. - Iron (Fe) and Nickel (Ni) are both transition metals. Show more…
