Answer 1

Here are the correct matches for the groups in Column A to the types of ions they form in Column B:

1. **Group 1A**: d. +1
2. **Group 2A**: a. +2
3. **Group 3A**: g. +3
4. **Group 4A**: e. +4/-4
5. **Group 5A**: b. -3
6. **Group 6A**: h. -2
7. **Group 7A**: f. -1
8. **Group 8A**: c. 0

These matches reflect the typical charge of ions formed by elements in these groups of the periodic table.
