Answer

(a) Calcite = $CaCO_{3}$ (b) Dolomite = $CaMg(CO_{3})_{2}$ (c) Fluorite = $CaF_{2}$ (d) Halite = $NaCl$ (e) Corundum = $Al_{2}O_{3}$ (f) Magnetite = $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ (g) Beryl = $Be_{3}Al_{2}(SiO_{3})_{6}$ (h) Galena = $PbS$ (i) Epsomite = $MgSO_{4}·7H2O$ (j) Anhydrite = $CaSO_{4}$

Work Step by Step

Looking up the proper symbols for each compound: (a) Calcite = $CaCO_{3}$ (b) Dolomite = $CaMg(CO_{3})_{2}$ (c) Fluorite = $CaF_{2}$ (d) Halite = $NaCl$ (e) Corundum = $Al_{2}O_{3}$ (f) Magnetite = $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ (g) Beryl = $Be_{3}Al_{2}(SiO_{3})_{6}$ (h) Galena = $PbS$ (i) Epsomite = $MgSO_{4}·7H2O$ (j) Anhydrite = $CaSO_{4}$
