In this item, we are simply to find the ions that may bond and are able to form a formula unit. We are also instructed to give out their name. There are numerous possible combinations of ions to form a compound. Some answers are given in the list below.
1. Na⁺ , Cl⁻ , NaCl ---> sodium chloride (this is most commonly known as table salt)
2. C⁴⁺ , O²⁻ , CO₂ ---> carbon dioxide
3. Al³+ , Cl⁻ , AlCl₃ ----> aluminum chloride
4. Ca²⁺ , Cl⁻ , CaCl₂ ---> calcium chloride
5. Li⁺ , Br⁻ , LiBr ---> lithium bromide
6. Mg³⁺ , O²⁻ , Mg₂O₃ ----> magnesium oxide
7. K⁺ , I⁻ , KI ---> potassium iodide
8. H⁺ , Cl⁻ , HCl --> hydrogen chloride
9. H⁺ , Br⁻ , HBr ----> hydrogen bromide
10. Na⁺ , Br⁻ , NaBr ---> sodium bromide
Answer:
The ratio is 1.000 mol of iron to 1.500 mol of oxygen (Fe1O1.5). Finally, multiply the ratio by two to get the smallest possible whole number subscripts while still maintaining the correct iron-to-oxygen ratio: The empirical formula is Fe2O3.
Answer: During an El Nino year, weakening winds along the equator lead to warming water surface temperatures that lead to further weakening of the winds
So basing on my understanding of this so far, an atom is an element that has the same number of protons and neutrons, an ion is an element that has different numbers of protons and electrons, an ion is positive when it has more protons than electrons and negative when it has more electrons than ions .
