Oxygen and Sulfur because they can form ions with a charge of -2, which would combine with the Ba2+ ion in a 1:2 ratio to form BaO2 and BaS respectively.
Answered by GPT 3.5
I apologize for the incorrect response. The correct answer is Chlorine, Iodine, and Fluorine. These elements can form ions with a charge of -1, which would combine with the Ba2+ ion in a 1:2 ratio to form BaX2 compounds (BaCl2, BaI2, and BaF2).
