Expert Solution

Step 1

Cation Co²⁺valency = 2+ name cobalt cation

Anion O^2-valency = 2- name oxide anion

for writing the empirical formula we have to cross over the valencies which means that the valency of anion is written under cation without it's sign and the valency of cation is written under anion without it's sign.

Co₂O₂

Simpifying the ratio

CoO

Name of compound is

Cobalt Oxide
