Answer:

AX₂

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

H₂O

NH₃

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine. Ammonia is also binary compound because it is made up of only two elements nitrogen and hydrogen.

water is also binary because it is also made up of only two elements hydrogen and oxygen.

In given question it is stated that the charge of cation is twice than the anion which means its charge would be +2 thus anionic part will have the charge -1. In neutral compound the positive and negative charges must be equal in magnitude to cancel the effect of each other and make the compound neutral. So, there must be two anionic atom present so that charge becomes -2 and cancel the +2 charge of cationic part. Thus the formula will be,

AX₂

A⁺²X₂⁻²

Which term is defined as the change in the direction of light when it goes from one medium into a different medium?
vovikov84 [41]
The term defined as the change in direction of light when it goes from one medium into a different medium is refraction.

Refraction is the change of direction on the propagation of a beam of light when it passes from a medium to other; this only happens when the light travels at different speeds in both media.

When a beam of light that travels in the air incedes in a slab of glass, part of the beam is reflected (bounces) and part is refracted (it penetrates in the glass and changes the angle).


Also,due to the different speeds of light in air and water, when a beam of light passes from air to water, it refracts.
