Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf AlN}}[/tex]
Explanation:
The goal when forming compounds is to achieve a net charge of 0.
We are given aluminum with a charge of 3+ and nitrogen with a charge of 3-.
These charges are equal and opposite, so one of each will equal 0.
- 3+ (Al) + 3- (N) = 0
Therefore, we do not need any subscripts. List the metal's symbol (aluminum) then the nonmetal.
- AlN
Th formula for the compound, which is aluminum nitride, is AlN.
