Interpretation:
The name and formula of the compound formed from Mg and Cl.
Concept introduction:
The chemical compounds are named based on the non metal and metal groups. The compound is to have single name though some compounds have alternative names as well. Therefore, common name identifies the chemical compound and its formula. Cation gets name of the elements while anions are named taking its first part adding ‘ide’ at the end.
Answer to Problem 37SSC
The name and formula of the compound formed from Mg and Cl is Magnesium Chloride
Explanation of Solution
The binary compounds have two elements where one of the elements can be group 1 or Group 2. The naming of this compound follows certain rules wherein the ending word for binary compound is ‘ide’. Also, cation is named first while anion is named second. Cation gets name of the elements while anions are named taking its first part adding ‘ide’ at the end.
The compound formed from Mg and Cl is further studied
- ‘Mg’ is chemical symbol for Magnesium
- ‘Cl’ is the chemical symbol for Chloride. It denotes element Chlorine. But as per naming convention, it should end with ‘ide’. Hence, it is named as Chloride
- To balance the charges of the compound, one of Mg and one of Cl ion is required.
- Now combining both the elements names it is identified as ‘MgCl’ and named as ‘Magnesium Chloride’.
The name and formula of the compound formed from Mg and Cl is Magnesium Chloride
