Answer 2

Answer:

• Most cations and anions can combine to form neutral compounds (typically solids under normal conditions) that are usually referred to as salts.
• The net charge of an ionic compound must be zero.
• Therefore, the number of cations and anions in an ionic compound must be balanced to make an electrically neutral molecule.
• When naming ionic compounds, the cation retains the same name as the element. The anion’s name is similar to the elemental name, but the ending of the name has been removed and replaced with “-ide.”
