Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Data Given:

Names of the compounds

Formula of the compounds = ?

Solution:

To write a formula for a compound we have to know the symbols of the element (atom) and its valency (combing power of an atom).

So then we write the symbols of the elements in combine form that the whole charge on the compounds will be zero.

Now we name all compound one by one

_________________

a) iron(III) carbonate

Symbol for element with valency in Compound

iron(III) = Fe³⁺

Carbonate = (CO₃)²⁻

Now write in combined form

Fe₂(CO₃)₃

Charges add up

iron(III) = Fe³⁺ = (3+) x 2= 6+

Carbonate = (CO₃)²⁻ = (2-) x 3= 6-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_______________

c) ammonium dichromate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

ammonium = NH₄⁺

dichromate = (Cr₂O₇)²⁻

Now write in combined form

(NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇

Charges add up

ammonium = NH₄⁺ = 2(1+) = 2+

dichromate = (Cr₂O₇)²⁻ = 2-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_______________

e) lithium hydride

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

lithium = Li⁺

hydride = H⁻

Now write in combined form

LiH

Charges add up

Lithium = Li⁺ = 1+

hydride = H⁻ = 1-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_______________

g) calcium acetate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

calcium = Ca²⁺

Acetate = (C₂H₃O₂)⁻

Now write in combined form

(C₂H₃O₂)₂Ca

Charges add up

calcium = Ca²⁺ = 2+

Acetate = (C₂H₃O₂)⁻ = 2(2-) = 2-

So as a whole the charge is zero

________________

i) lithium chromate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

Lithium = Li⁺

Chromate = (CrO₄)²⁻

Now write in combined form

(Li)₂CrO₄

Charges add up

Lithium = Li⁺ = 2(1+) = 2+

Chromate = (CrO₄)²⁻ = 2-

So as a whole the charge is zero

k) lead(II) sulfate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

lead(II) = Pb²⁺

sulfate = (SO₄)²⁻

Now write in combined form

PbSO₄

lead(II) = Pb²⁺ = 2+

sulfate = (SO₄)²⁻ = 2-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_________________

m) zinc bromide

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

Zinc = Zn²⁺

bromide = Br⁻

Now write in combined form

ZnBr₂

Charges add up

Zinc = Zn²⁺ = 2+

bromide = Br⁻ = 2(1-)

So as a whole the charge is zero

_________________

o) silver iodide

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

Silver = Ag⁺

Iodide = I⁻

Now write in combined form

q) chromium(III) chlorate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

chromium(III) = Cr³⁺

Chlorate = (CIO)⁻

Now write in combined form

Cr(CIO)₃

chromium(III) = Cr³⁺ = 3+

Chlorate = (CIO)⁻ = 3(1-)

So as a whole the charge is zero

_________________

s) cesium nitride

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

cesium = Cs⁺

Niride = N³⁻

Now write in combined form

Cs₃N

Charges add up

cesium = Cs⁺ = 3(1+)

Niride = N³⁻ = 3-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_________________

u) sodium bicarbonate

Symbol for component with valency in Compound

sodium = Na⁺

bicarbonate = (HCO₃)⁻

Now write in combined form

NaHCO₃

Charges add up

sodium = Na⁺ = 1+

bicarbonate = (HCO₃)⁻ = 1-

So as a whole the charge is zero

_________________

w) beryllium sulfite

Symbol for component with valency in Compound
