Question

1) show ionic bonding between two atoms

2) write the ions formed after ionic bonding
3) write the formula of the ionic compound formed
4) name the ionic compound formed

Answer 1

1) Li(1+) + Cl(1-)
Charges are balanced.
= LiCl
Lithium Chloride

2) Ca(2+) + O(2-)
Charges are balanced.
= CaO
Calcium Oxide

3) Be(2+) + F(1-)
To balance the charges > 2(F(1-)) = F2
= BeF2
Beryllium Fluoride

4) Mg(2+) + S(2-)
Charges are balanced.
=MgS
Magnesium Sulfide

5) K(1+) + F(1-)
Charges are balanced.
= KF
Potassium Fluoride

6) Al(3+) + Cl(1-)
To balance the charges > 3(Cl(1-)) = Cl3
= AlCl3
Aluminum Chloride

7) Na(1+) + O(2-)
To balance the charges > 2(Na(1+)) = Na2
= Na2O
Sodium Oxide
