  • Sodium Dichromate (Na₂Cr₂O₇): Ionic or Polyatomic?
    Na₂Cr₂O₇ contains a polyatomic ion.

    Here's why:

    * Na represents the sodium ion (Na⁺), a simple ion.

    * Cr₂O₇ represents the dichromate ion (Cr₂O₇²⁻), which is a complex ion made up of two chromium atoms and seven oxygen atoms.

    Since the compound contains a complex ion, it's not a binary ionic compound.
