A triatomic ionic compound contains two elements.  If there are two chloride ions present, what is the charge on the other element? A student gave the following formula as an answer to a quiz question: BrMg.  Is this formula correct?  If so, explain why, if not provide the correct formula and name of the compound. If a full shell was 10 electrons in the outermost shell (outer shell electrons = valence electrons) rather than our current 8 because the p subshell had 4 orbitals… What would the charge of fluorine be when it forms an ion? The F atom has 7 valence electrons. Would F be a metal or a nonmetal? What would the charge of carbon be when it forms an ion?  The C atom has 4 valence electrons.  Would C be a metal or a nonmetal? What is the formula of an ionic compound of carbon and fluorine?
