A formula unit in chemistry is the empirical formula of any ionic or covalent network solid compound used as an independent entity for stoichiometric calculations. It is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound, 
to calculate the ions u need to learn wheather that perticular compound will undergo into dissiociation or association , 
then try to form the charge it acquired and its called as ions 
HOPE IT CLEARS /..
