Question
**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.
