Group Activity | Q 1. | Page 36

Play a game for writing formula.

Example 1: Make placards with symbols and valencies of the elements separately. Each student should hold two placards, one with the symbol in the right hand and the other with the valency in the left hand. Keeping the symbols in place, students should criss-cross their valencies to form the formula of a compound.

Group Activity | Q 2. | Page 37

Play a game for writing formula.

Example 2: A low-cost model for writing formulae: Take empty blister packs of medicines. Cut them in groups according to the valency of the element, as shown in the figure. Now, you can make formulae by fixing one type of ion into other.

For example:

The formula for sodium sulphate:

2 sodium ions can be fixed on one sulphate ion.

Hence, the formula will be Na2SO4.

Do it yourself:

Now, write the formula of sodium phosphate.
