(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the ionic compound
Concept introduction:
An ionic compound is formed by electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions.
Overall, the ionic compound is neutral as it contains equal number of positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are formed due to high electronegativity difference between the two atoms. The more electronegative atom gets the negative charge and known as anion, the other gets positive charge and known as cation.
While naming ionic compounds, the name of the cation is written first followed by the name of anion with appropriate suffix.

Without using a calculator, what would you estimate the % abundance of Br-79 to be?arrow_forwardGive the names of the nonmetals that correspond to the following symbols: As, I, Xe, He, C, Si.arrow_forward
- 2-17 How does Dalton’s atomic theory explain: (a) the law of conservation of mass? (b) the law of constant composition?arrow_forwardTwo elements, R and Q, combine to form two binary compounds. In the first compound, 14.0 g of R combines with 3.00 g of Q. In the second compound, 7.00 g of R combines with 4.50 g of Q. Show that these data are in accord with the law of multiple proportions. If the formula of the second compound is RQ, what is the formula of the first compound?arrow_forwardThe following table presents the abundances and masses of the isotopes of zinc. What is the atomic weight of zinc?arrow_forward
