![**Classify Each Chemical Compound**
**Instructions:** Identify whether each given chemical compound is ionic or molecular by checking the appropriate option.
| Compound | Type of Compound |
|------------------|---------------------------|
| Fe(C\(_2\)H\(_3\)O\(_2\))\(_3\) | ☐ Ionic ☐ Molecular |
| HNO\(_3\) | ☐ Ionic ☐ Molecular |
| PCl\(_3\) | ☐ Ionic ☐ Molecular |
**Explanation of Options:**
- **Ionic Compounds:** These consist of positive and negative ions held together by electrostatic forces. Typically, they form between metals and non-metals.
- **Molecular Compounds (Covalent Compounds):** These consist of molecules formed by atoms of non-metals sharing electrons through covalent bonds.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe6d6aa8d-4340-43e7-a5af-c9b2699c7ff2%2F7aa920b6-f526-40ce-ab1f-67219fff1b22%2F2fr38qk_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
