If I make a compound of the fake ions Spoofium (Sp2+) and Hoaxium (Hx1.) What will their chemical formula be? Write your answer in the space below, using the superscript
or subscript button as necessary. The image is for reference, the pieces will not move.

SpHz₂

Explanation:

An ionic or electrovalent bond isa Bob formed when there is a transfer of an electron from a metallic atom of an elemet to a non-metallic atom of another element. The number of electrons tranferered from the metallic atom to the non-metallic atom depends on the number of valence electrons that the metal possesses.

The fake ion Spoofium is a metallic element as indicated by the positive charge it carries whereas the ion, hoaxium, is non-metallic as it negatively charged. Spoofium will donate two electrons per atom while hoaxium will accept one electron per atom as indicated by the size of their charges.

When a compound is formed between Spoofium and Hoaxium, two hoaxium ions will be required to accept the two electrons of a Spoofium ion to form the compound, SpHx₂ as shown in the equation below:

Sp²+ + 2 Hx- > SpHx₂

the answers are a and c
