To write the formulas for the given compounds, we will follow a systematic approach, identifying the symbols and oxidation states of the elements involved, and then applying the criss-cross method to determine the correct formulas. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Mercury (II) Chloride**: - **Identify the symbols**: Mercury is represented as **Hg** and has an oxidation state of **+2**. Chloride is represented as **Cl** and has a charge of **-1**. - **Apply the criss-cross method**: The formula will be HgCl₂ (the 2 from Cl becomes the subscript for Hg). - **Final formula**: **HgCl₂** ...
