(a)
Interpretation:
The formula of calcium sulfite should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Ionic bonds are formed by complete donation and acceptance of electron. Electropositive atoms can give electrons to electronegative atoms to form ionic bonds.
In the periodic table, group 1 and 2 elements are metals which can easily release electron/s to acquire stable electronic configuration. Similarly, group 17 elements are most electronegative in nature they can accept electron to get stable electronic configuration.
The naming of the ions is done in such a way that the name of metal cation will remain same to that of metal while for anion the name of negative charged species ends with suffix ‘ate’. Polyatomic ion contains more than 2 atoms of same or different elements.
(b)
Interpretation:
The formula of calcium hydrogen sulfite should be identified.
