Really dumb question...what is "molecular form"
« on: February 28, 2007, 10:09:32 PM »
I suppose in terms of charge, my notes keep referencing ionic, anionic which I know is positive and negative and then it says molecular form, which I thought might be neutral, but then it talks about molecular form being different than neutral....I'm lost, and I'm no chemist....I need *delete me*!

Never heard of it.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

Note, neutral are aminoacids, though they show ion-pair structure. May be author had this difference in mind
