Answer: The chemical formula for lead (II) iodide is $PbI_2$

Explanation:

Lead (II) iodide is a ionic compound because it are formed by transference of electrons between metals and non metals.The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first followed by the oxidation state of metal in roman numerals in square brackets.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

The chemical formula for lead (II) iodide is $PbI_2$

What is the representative particle for copper metal, Cu

Mamont248 [21]

A representative particle is the smallest unit of a substance that can be broken down without altering the composition. Matter is composed of three types of representative particles: atoms, molecules and formula units.

Atoms and Elements

Atoms are the smallest particle that can be split. Substances that contain only one kind of atom are called elements.

Molecules

The molecule is the representative particle of molecular compounds. It is also the representative particle of diatomic elements.

Formula Unit

The representative particle of an ionic compound is the formula unit. A formula unit uses a formula to calculate the basic whole number ratio of the ions in an ionic compound.

Diatomic Elements

Diatomic elements, or molecules, are made up of two atoms of the same element. These diatomic elements are not part of a compound.
