If the formula for a compound is represented by x3y2 and the charge on the y ion is -3, what is the charge in the x ion?

a.+1
b.+2
c.+3
d.+4

I cannot fully remember but the charge of a compound always has to be the same.  However, I believe that the sign of the Y2 means that it is positive 2. 

so in my opinion it is in between b and c. use your best judgment. 

Ifound this on google “these two compounds have a different ionic structure. caesium ion is larger in size when compared to the sodium ion. the charge gets more area to spread out evenly. so caesium chloride has a lower melting point than sodium chloride.” i hope this you for what your looking for

Ibelieve its a because an empirical formula usually has a ch in it your options are a or b
