Question

For each of the following, write the expected chemical formula.a. Aluminum ion and bromide ion :b. Strontium ion and hydroxide ion :c. Iron (III) ion and oxide ion :d. Calcium ion and phosphate ion :e. Ammonium ion and nitrate ion :

Answer 1

Answer:

The expected formulas for these ions are:

a. Aluminum ion and bromide ion:

$\begin{gathered} Aluminum\text{ ion: }Al^{+3} \\ Bromide\text{ }ion:Br^{-1} \end{gathered}$

b. Strontium ion and hydroxide ion:

$\begin{gathered} Strontium\text{ ion}:\text{ Sr}^{+2} \\ Hydroxide\text{ ion}:OH^- \end{gathered}$

c. Iron(III) ion and oxide ion

$\begin{gathered} Iron(III)\text{ }Ion:Fe^{*3} \\ Oxide\text{ }ion:O^{-2} \end{gathered}$

d.Calcium ion and phosphate ion

$\begin{gathered} Calcium\text{ }ion:Ca^{+2} \\ Phosphate\text{ }ion:PO_4^{-3} \end{gathered}$

e.Ammonium ion and nitrate ion

$\begin{gathered} Ammonium\text{ ion:}NH_4^+ \\ Nitrate\text{ ion }:NO_3^- \end{gathered}$
