Interpretation:
The formulas for the ionic compounds formed from the pair of given ions are to be written.
Concept Introduction:
An ionic compound is a compound that consists of ions having electrostatic interaction between them. These interactions are termed as ionic bonding.
The element symbols and subscripts present in an ionic compound are represented with the help of a chemical formula.
While writing the chemical formula for an ionic compound, the symbol of the metal is written first which is followed by the symbol of the non-metal.
Formal charge equation can be given as:
where F is the formal charge, Z is the group number of the element, S equals the number of shared electrons, and U is the number of unshared electrons.
The arithmetic sum of all the formal charges in a molecule or ion will equal the overall charge on the molecule or ion.

- The present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forward4-102 Aspartame, an artificial sweetener used as a sugar substitute in some foods and beverages, has the molecular formula C14H18N2O5.
