Answer:

M is bivalent metal means it has valency 2.

To write chemical formula of any compound the simplest method is criss cross method.  

Step 1: Let us take Magnesium to form compound with sulphate.  

Step 2: Write the constituent elements and. their valencies. magnesium is 2 as it is bivalent and of sulphur is 2 as it belongs to halogen family.

Valency           2          2

Element           Mg        SO4

 

Step 4: Criss-cross the reduced valency numerals and write them as subscripts at bottom right hand side of the symbols.

Step 5 : Hence We get the formula MgSO4
