Write the chemical formula for the following compounds.\u00c3\u201a\u00c2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(i) Tin (IV) Oxide = ___________<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(ii) Sulfur trioxide = ___________<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(iv) Strontium Hydroxide = ____________<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The correct answer and explanation is :<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chemical Formulas:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Tin (IV) Oxide<\/strong> = SnO\u2082<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Sulfur Trioxide<\/strong> = SO\u2083<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Iron (II) Phosphate<\/strong> = Fe\u2083(PO\u2084)\u2082<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Strontium Hydroxide<\/strong> = Sr(OH)\u2082<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n\n\n

    Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    (i) Tin (IV) Oxide (SnO\u2082)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Tin (IV) oxide consists of tin (Sn) with a +4 oxidation state and oxygen (O) with a -2 charge. Since oxygen has a charge of -2 and tin has a charge of +4, we need two oxygen atoms to balance one tin atom, leading to the formula SnO\u2082<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    (ii) Sulfur Trioxide (SO\u2083)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Sulfur trioxide consists of one sulfur (S) atom and three oxygen (O) atoms. This is a molecular compound, and the name itself directly gives the formula: SO\u2083<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    (iii) Iron (II) Phosphate (Fe\u2083(PO\u2084)\u2082)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Iron (II) phosphate contains Fe\u00b2\u207a ions and phosphate (PO\u2084\u00b3\u207b) ions. To balance the charges, we need three Fe\u00b2\u207a ions (total charge = +6) and two PO\u2084\u00b3\u207b ions (total charge = -6). This results in the formula Fe\u2083(PO\u2084)\u2082<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    (iv) Strontium Hydroxide (Sr(OH)\u2082)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Strontium (Sr) is an alkaline earth metal with a charge of +2. The hydroxide ion (OH\u207b) has a charge of -1. To balance the charges, we need two hydroxide ions for every strontium ion, giving the formula Sr(OH)\u2082<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
