Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most common ions for these elements are: Sulfur (S) forms a 2- ion, Sodium (Na) forms a 1+ ion, Fluorine (F) forms a 1- ion, Calcium (Ca) forms a 2+ ion, and Aluminum (Al) forms a 3+ ion. Therefore, in order of increasing charge, it would be Sulfur (2-), Fluorine (1-), Sodium (1+), Calcium (2+), and Aluminum (3+).
