Interpretation:
The formulas of ammonium oxide and zinc hydroxide are to be written.
Concept introduction:
The elements are found as single atom particles in the universe. When atom accepts or loses electrons it is termed as ion. When the ion is formed from a single atom, it is referred as monatomic ion. But, in nature, many compounds are found as polyatomic ions (poly = many). Polyatomic ions are electronically neutral, for example, ammonium ion will not exist without its counter negative ion. In general, formulas of ionic compounds depict the ratio of positive and negative ions found in a substance. Moreover, the formulas of compounds are made up of lowest whole number ratio of ions i.e., formula unit. Notably, the number of positive units and the number of negative units will be equal in a chemical formula. The polyatomic ion when used in more than once, parentheses is used, and the parentheses is applied only for polyatomic ions.

One example is Compound C shown below, which could be imagined as adopting four possible conformations. In reality, however, only one of these is particularly stable. Circle the conformation you expect to be the most stable, and provide an explanation to justify your choice. For your explanation to be both convincing and correct, it must contain not only words, but also "cartoon" orbital drawings contrasting the four structures.
