BaS2, Li2O, Ca3N2, CuI2 You need to look at this and balance the charges so they are zero.

hows what?

Sorry my iPad is messing up. How do you balance the charges?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You got to look at the charges i.e Ba has a charge of 2+ and S has a charge of 2- so they go together in a one to one ratio. I messed up uptop because i didn't see the charge on s and picked the wrong one.
