Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To determine the formula of the sodium peroxide.

Concept Introduction:

Formula of a compound is the representation of the given name into the symbol of their element with some chemical formation of bond between them. To write the formula of a compound, we must know the symbol and valence electron of that element. The charge on the element/ molecule present is used to determine the formula of a compound.

There are two type of charge i.e. positive and negative charge species are combine together with balancing the total charge of a compound.
