Question

2. The symbol of an element is ‘X’. Is it possible that the formula of the element will also be ‘X’? Explain with examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Sure, it is very possible:

Na, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, C....

For MOST elements, their atomic symbol and their formula are the same thing. There are really only a small number of elements (for example, N2, O2, P4, S8, Cl2....) where this is not the case.
