OpenStudy (superhelp101):

@Abhisar is it CaS?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

@superhelp101 how can it be CaS ?

OpenStudy (abmon98):

Find these elements on the periodic table, atoms of these elements have charge, barium has +2charge and nirorgen has -3 charge, You need to have the compound balanced, you need to one more barium to balance the compound. so the final chemical formula you will obtain is Ba3N2

OpenStudy (abhisar):

3Ba + N\(_2\) ----> Ba\(_3\)N\(_2\)

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

Yes CaS is wrong. How can a compound between N and Ba can be CaS ?
