e.+4/-4
f.+2
g.-2
h.+1

Answer 1

Here's the matching of groups from Column A to the types of ions they typically form in Column B:

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

These assignments reflect the common oxidation states and ionic charges that these groups typically exhibit based on their positions in the periodic table.
