(b) $Mg _3 N_2$ [Valency of $Mg =2$ (second group), valency of nitrogen $=3\left(15^{\text {th }}\right.$ group $\left.)\right]$
(c) $AlI _3$ [Valency of $Al =3$ (third group), valency of $I=1\left(17^{\text {th }}\right.$ group $\left.)\right]$
(d) $SiO _2$ [Valency of $Si =4$ (fourteen group), valency of oxygen $=2\left(16^{\text {th }}\right.$ group $\left.)\right]$
(e) $PF _3$ or $PF _5$ [Valency of $P =3,5\left(15^{\text {th }}\right.$ group $)$, valency of $F=1$ ( $17^{\text {th }}$ group) ]
(f) $71^{\text {th }}$ element $= Lu , LuF _3$ [Valency of $Lu =3$ valency of $F=1$ ( $17^{\text {th }}$ group)]
