(a)
Interpretation: The respective formulae of the compounds to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
In the formula of the compound, the sum of the charge of cation and anion must be equal to zero. The ration of cation and anion to be known in order to arrive the formula of a compound.
Rules for Nomenclature of ionic compounds:
- The name of the cation is followed by the name of the anion.
(a)
Answer to Problem 9PPB
Explanation of Solution
Predict the Formula.
The cation and anion along with the charges are predicted. Finally combine the ions in neutral ratio. The sum of the charge of both cation and anion is equal to zero when the ratio of combination is
