The chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.
<h3>Ionic compounds</h3>
- Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed from the combination of negatively charged and positively charged ion.
- Positively charged ions are formed by loss of electrons
- Negatively-charged ions are formed from gain of electrons
<h3>Formation of ionic compounds</h3>
During the formation of the ionic compound between an ion X that has a charge of 2+ and ion Y has a charge of 1-, two negatively charged ions of Y are required to form a neutral ionic ionic compound when they react with X.
The chemical the formula of the ionic compound they form is as follows;
X²⁺ + 2Y⁻ ---> XY₂
Therefore, the chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

I don’t really have a clear answer for you but this might help
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)
