how to write chemical formula of a compound(chemistry class 8)
Answers
hey buddy,
chemical formula of a substance is its symbolic representation, which also tells the no. of atoms contained in it.
this is a lifetime lesson.
chemical formula is written by writing its valency, and its symbol.
for example ... formula of rock salt.
it has : Sodium (Na ) and Chlorine(Cl)
Na has 1+ valency and Cl has 1- valency,thus.... formula= NaCl.
more are...
ferric chloride...
Fe 3+ and Cl 1-.
thus, FeCl3
Answer:
water = H2O

to form octet 1 hydrogen compound required
therefore 2 molecules of hydrogen and 1 oxygen molecule form H2O
