Answer:

a)
BaF_(2)

b)
SnCl_(4)

c)
Cr_(2)O_(3)

d)
FeO

e)
Li_(3) P

Step-by-step explanation:

The charges of the ions have to be 0, so they balance.

a)
Ba^(2+) has the charge of +2 and
F^(-) has the charge of -1. So its
0=(+2)+(-1)*2. That means you need one
Ba^(2+) and two
F^(-) to balance the equation. ->
BaF_(2)

b)
Sn^(4+) has the charge of +4 and
Cl^(-) has the charge of -1. So its
0=(+4)+(-1)*4. That means you need one
Sn^(4+) and four
Cl^(-) to balance the equation. ->
SnCl_(4)

c)
Cr^(3+) has the charge of +3 and
O^(2-) has the charge of -2. So its
0=(+3)*2+(-2)*3. That means you need two
Cr^(3+) and three
O^(2-) to balance the equation. ->
Cr_(2)O_(3)

d)
Fe^(2+) has the charge of +2 and
O^(2-)has the charge of -2. So its
0=(+2)+(-2). That means you need one
Fe^(2+) and one
O^(2-) to balance the equation. ->
FeO

e)
Li^(+) has the charge of +1 and
P^(3-)has the charge of -3. So its
0=(+1)*3+(-3). That means you need three
Li^(+) and one
P^(3-) to balance the equation. ->
Li_(3) P
