The sulphides of zinc, cadmium, and mercury form part of the following series of diatomic compounds:- ZnO CdO HgO ZnS CdS HgS ZnSe CdSe HgSe ZnTe CdTe HgTe which are all chemically similar. One of the constituents of these substances has a positive and the other a negative electrovalency of two:- positive electrovalency of two- Zn, Cd, Hg. negative electrovalency of two-O, S, Se, Te.
