Question

Could this be right? :AG^+1 is the cation. The Anion is SO4^-2. For the compound I wrote Ag4SO1, and in word form, I wrote Silver Sulfite. Is this right?

Answer 1

Neither is correct.

Note that compounds are neutral. So if Ag is +2 and SO4 is -2, what must the formula be. The name is silver sulfate. Sulfate is SO4^-2 and sulfite is SO3^-2.
