the sulfite ion has a -2 charge
Pb(SO₃)₂
the hydrogen phosphate compound is missing a subscript 4
Pb(H₂PO₄)₄
I'm doing online homework and the follow question has come up:
Write the formulas of the compounds formed by Pb4+ with the following anions: NO3−, ClO3−, SO32−, H2PO4−.
Express your answers as chemical formulas separated by commas. Use the given order of anions.
I believe I got the answers, yet it still tells me I got the problem wrong. The tricky part is that the program will NOT tell me which formula is wrong. This is so frustrating.
My answers are:
Pb(NO3)4, (Pb(ClO3)4, Pb(SO3)4, Pb(H2PO)4.
