Question

complete the table below by writing the symbols for the cation and anion that make up each ionic compound. the first row has been completed for you.

ionic compound	(nh_{4}oh)	(cr_{2}(co_{3})_{3})	(mn(no_{3})_{3})	(vbr_{3})	(nacl)
anion					(cl^{-})

Explanation:

Step1: Identify cations and anions in $(NH_4)_2O$

Ammonium ion is the cation and oxide ion is the anion.

Step2: Write cation for $(NH_4)_2O$

$NH_4^+$

Step3: Write anion for $(NH_4)_2O$

$O^{2 -}$

Step4: Identify cations and anions in $Cr_2(CO_3)_3$

Chromium(III) ion is the cation and carbonate ion is the anion.

Step5: Write cation for $Cr_2(CO_3)_3$

$Cr^{3+}$

Step6: Write anion for $Cr_2(CO_3)_3$

$CO_3^{2 -}$

Step7: Identify cations and anions in $Mn(NO_3)_3$

Manganese(III) ion is the cation and nitrate ion is the anion.

Step8: Write cation for $Mn(NO_3)_3$

$Mn^{3+}$

Step9: Write anion for $Mn(NO_3)_3$

$NO_3^{-}$

Step10: Identify cations and anions in $VBr_3$

Vanadium(III) ion is the cation and bromide ion is the anion.

Step11: Write cation for $VBr_3$

$V^{3+}$

Step12: Write anion for $VBr_3$

$Br^{-}$

Answer:

Ionic compound	Cation	Anion
$Cr_2(CO_3)_3$	$Cr^{3+}$	$CO_3^{2 -}$
$Mn(NO_3)_3$	$Mn^{3+}$	$NO_3^{-}$
$VBr_3$	$V^{3+}$	$Br^{-}$
$NaCl$	$Na^+$	$Cl^{-}$
