(a)
Interpretation:
The formula for the ionic compound cupric chloride is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An ionic compound is composed of positive and negative ions. A formula unit in an ionic compound is the simplest representative particle. Since, a formula unit is neutral; the total positive charge must be equal to the total negative charge in the ionic compound.
(b)
Interpretation:
The formula for the ionic compound ferrous sulfide is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An ionic compound is composed of positive and negative ions. A formula unit in an ionic compound is the simplest representative particle. Since, a formula unit is neutral; the total positive charge must be equal to the total negative charge in the ionic compound.
(c)
Interpretation:
The formula for the ionic compound cobaltic acetate is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An ionic compound is composed of positive and negative ions. A formula unit in an ionic compound is the simplest representative particle. Since, a formula unit is neutral; the total positive charge must be equal to the total negative charge in the ionic compound.
(d)
Interpretation:
The formula for the ionic compound stannous chromate is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An ionic compound is composed of positive and negative ions. A formula unit in an ionic compound is the simplest representative particle. Since, a formula unit is neutral; the total positive charge must be equal to the total negative charge in the ionic compound.
