Question

If the nitride of a metal M has the formula MN, What is the formula of its sulphide, carbonate and chloride ??

Open in App

Solution

Dear Student

The nitride ions are N^3- and when the metal nitride has the formula MN. This shows that the metal ions are M³⁺.
So, the sulphide of metal will be $M_{2} S_{3}$ .
The formula of metal carbonate will be $M_{2} {(C O_{3})}_{3}$ .
The formula of metal chloride will be $M C l_{3}$ .
