Write the empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions: Mg+2, Pb+4, I−, O−2

MgI₂, MgO, PbI₄, PbO₂

Explanation:

For an ionic compound to be formed, it must be neutral, that is the total positive charge must be equal to the total negative charge.

Mg²⁺ and I⁻: The neutral ionic compound requires 1 Mg²⁺ and 2 I⁻ and the resulting empirical formula is MgI₂.

Mg²⁺ and O²⁻: The neutral ionic compound requires 1 Mg²⁺ and 1 O²⁻ and the resulting empirical formula is MgO.

Pb⁴⁺ and I⁻: The neutral ionic compound requires 1 Pb⁴⁺ and 4 I⁻ and the resulting empirical formula is PbI₄.

Pb⁴⁺ and O²⁻: The neutral ionic compound requires 1 Pb⁴⁺ and 2 O²⁻ and the resulting empirical formula is PbO₂.

idk what is it? is this a question that you know the answer or u dont

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
