Question

With elements sodium, oxygen, and phosphorus on the periodic table describe the monoatomic ions each would form. Then describe and give the formulas for the types of ionic compounds they would produce with each other

Answer 1

Sodium forms an Na+ ion while oxygen forms an O2- ion. Phosphorus doesn't particularly form an ion(Its compounds are covalent in nature).
From these ions you get Na2O , With phosphorus and oxygen you would get P2O5,P4O10,
