Chapter 4, Problem 4.84CHP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Name of MgF2 has to be given and if the compound is covalent, an electron-dot structure should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Electron-dot structure:

This is only way to show the sharing of electrons between atom in polar covalent bonds or covalent bond.  This is often called as Lewis structure.  This structure denotes valence electrons of an atom by dots and also it shows the way of valence electron distributed within a molecule.

Naming molecular compounds:

To name binary ionic compounds, first predict the positive ion and then negative ion.  The positive ion is named as same element while negative ion taking the first part from its original name and ending with –ide.

Numerical prefix for naming compounds are,
