Answer: The correct formula is
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 magnesium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as cation and bromine
is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
.
The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since the Lewis theory is based on the bonds formation between atoms via the valence electrons, we can verify the chemical formula of the compound formed by strontium and nitrogen by noticing that strontium has two valence electrons as it is in group IIA, for that reason, two nitrogens should be available for bonding. Therefore, since nitrogen is in group VA, it is said that three electrons are required to attain the octet (maximum amount bonded electrons), for that reason, three strontiums are should be available for bonding. In such a way, the formula should be:
