We use the term formula unit for ionic compounds because ;

  • Ionic compounds consist of cations and anions present in constant ratio ( C )
  • Ionic compounds consist of continuous arrays of cations and anions ( D )

The molecule of an ionic compound gets attached to another molecule of an ionic compound via electrostatic force of attraction. this form of attraction between the molecules forms an arranged lattice structure. and due to this well arranged lattice structure an ionic compound can be termed as a Formula unit and not molecule.

Hence the correct options are as listed above
