Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine Compound Formation for Li1+\mathrm{Li}^{1+}
  • Li1+\mathrm{Li}^{1+} is a cation with a single positive charge.
  • It can form ionic compounds by pairing with anions that have a negative charge.
  • However, the question does not provide a specific anion to pair with Li1+\mathrm{Li}^{1+}, so we cannot determine a specific compound.
Step 2: Determine Compound Formation for Ca2+\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} and F1\mathrm{F}^{1-}
  • Ca2+\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} is a cation with a charge of +2+2.
  • F1\mathrm{F}^{1-} is an anion with a charge of 1-1.
  • To form a neutral compound, two F1\mathrm{F}^{1-} ions are needed to balance the charge of one Ca2+\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} ion.
  • The resulting compound is CaF2\mathrm{CaF}_2.
Step 3: Determine Compound Formation for O2\mathrm{O}^{2-}
  • O2\mathrm{O}^{2-} is an anion with a charge of 2-2.
  • It can form ionic compounds by pairing with cations that have a positive charge.
  • However, the question does not provide a specific cation to pair with O2\mathrm{O}^{2-}, so we cannot determine a specific compound.

Final Answer

  1. Li1+\mathrm{Li}^{1+}: Cannot determine a specific compound.
  2. Ca2+\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} and F1\mathrm{F}^{1-}: CaF2\boxed{\mathrm{CaF}_2}
  3. O2\mathrm{O}^{2-}: Cannot determine a specific compound.
  4. O2\mathrm{O}^{2-} and Cl1\mathrm{Cl}^{1-}: Cannot determine a specific compound.
