(a) Interpretation: The formula of magnesium fluoride should be determined. Concept introduction: Binary compound is made of two bonded elements. The naming of binary compound first requires to identify positive and also negative ions present in the molecule. The name given to positive ion is same as element while name given to negative ion is elements name combined with “ide” at the end. If the positive ion is a transition metal then the charge present on the transition metal is represented by roman numerals. The value of total positive charges on transition metal can be calculated by counting of total negative charge value of anions.
