(a)
Interpretation:
The appropriate formula for hydroxylamine should be determined.
Concept introduction:
All known compounds are mainly classified as ionic and covalent compounds. In the naming of ionic compounds, the name of cation always comes first then the name of anion will come. In the naming of covalent compounds, the name of center atom will come first followed by other atoms with certain suffix that depends on the charge and atoms. In case of writing the formula, same rules need to follow such as writing the cation symbol first then anion symbol will come in ionic compounds. The criss-cross method must be used to balance the charges on cation and anions. In order to write the covalent compounds, write the

The criss-cross method must be used to balance the charges on cation and anions. In order to write the covalent compounds write the element symbol for both elements with number of each element as subscript according to its prefix.
