You haven't attached any options but anyways, to help you with your question, elements belonging to the same group (e.g. alkali metals, noble gases) all have the same chemical properties. Hydrogen, for example, have the same properties with Sodium, Potassium and Lithium.
Answer: The ionic formula of compound is
and the name is cobalt phosphide.
Explanation:
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.
Here element Co is having an oxidation state of +3 called as
cation and phosphprous forms
anion with oxidation state of -3. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
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'.
Thus the name of
is cobalt phosphide.
Hydrogen is the only atom that does not have neutron electrons in the first energy level/shell.
