A ternary compound is made of three elements.
Sodium is an alkali metal with a charge of +1. Carbonate CO3 has a charge of 2-. When writing a formula the net charge for the compound must be neutral. You need two sodiums to cancel out the charge of one carbonate.
Na2CO3
Na2CO3 Obviously the numbers should be subscripts, but the chemical name is sodium carbonate.
Na2Co3 is made by bonding sodium ions and carbonate ions. Carbonate ion is the polyatomic ion in this compound. The chemical formula for it is CO3^.-2
Na2CO3, or sodium carbonate.
Sodium carbonate is Na2CO3.
The ion carbonate is (CO3)-.
Na3co1
Sodium: Na or the ion Na+ Carbonate: (CO3)2-
The chemical formula of lead(IV) carbonate is Pb(CO3)2.
Silver = Ag+1 Carbonate = CO3-2 Formula is: Ag2(CO3)
Dolomite is a crystal of calcium magnesium carbonate, CaMg(CO3)2.
Zinc carbonate is an ionic compound with the formula ZnCO3.
Sodium: Na or the ion Na+ Carbonate: (CO3)2-
K2CO3 Potassium carbonate
K2CO3 Potassium carbonate
sodium: Na + carbonate: CO3 2- therefore... Na2CO3 the "2" and "3" are subscripts
2 Na +and1 CO3 2-form the ionic compound,Na2CO3======
The chemical formula of lead(IV) carbonate is Pb(CO3)2.
This chemical formula is SnS2.
Silver = Ag+1 Carbonate = CO3-2 Formula is: Ag2(CO3)
Silver = Ag+1 Carbonate = CO3-2 Formula is: Ag2(CO3)
Formula = CO3-2
This formula is Sn(CO3)2.
Dolomite is a crystal of calcium magnesium carbonate, CaMg(CO3)2.
