Question
Chapter 17, Problem 10RAT
To determine
The name of the compound: CaCl2
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 10RAT
The correct option for the name of the compound: CaCl2 is option (d).
Explanation of Solution
The compounds are a species formed when two or more different elements are combined.
The compounds are named in two types:
The systematic name (IUPAC name).
The common name.
The given compound is CaCl2 which consists of the following components;
One CaCl2 -calcium atom.
One CaCl2-chlorine molecule.
The compound is named by combining the names of elements combined in the compound and thus the name of CaCl2 is calcium chloride.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the correct option is option (d).
