(a)
Interpretation:
The chemical formula of the ionic compound magnesium phosphate needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When the number of electrons increases or decreases from the
(b)
Interpretation:
The chemical formula of the ionic compound cupric sulfate needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When the number of electrons increases or decreases from the atomic number, ions are formed. Cation is a positively charged ion formed by losing electron/s and anion is a negatively charged ion formed by gaining electron/s. While writing name of the ionic compounds, the name of cation is always written first followed by the name of the anion. In order to form an ionic compound, the cation and anion combine in such a way that the total charge is zero.
(c)
Interpretation:
The chemical formula of the ionic compound potassium chloride needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When the number of electrons increases or decreases from the atomic number, ions are formed. Cation is a positively charged ion formed by losing electron/s and anion is a negatively charged ion formed by gaining electron/s. While writing name of the ionic compounds, the name of cation is always written first followed by the name of the anion. In order to form an ionic compound, the cation and anion combine in such a way that the total charge is zero.
(d)
Interpretation:
The chemical formula of the ionic compound calcium carbonate needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
When the number of electrons increases or decreases from the atomic number, ions are formed. Cation is a positively charged ion formed by losing electron/s and anion is a negatively charged ion formed by gaining electron/s.
