Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The systematic name for blue vitriol ${\text{CuSO}}_4.5{\text{H}}_2\text{O}$ is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The general rules for writing the systematic names of ionic compounds are as follows:

1) In binary ionic compounds, the name of the metal is written as the original name whereas the name of the non-metal has the root word with the suffix $\text{-}ide$.

2) In metals that form more than one ion, the Latin root of the metal is followed by a suffix $\text{-}ous$ for the ion with lower charge and suffix $\text{-}ic$ for the ion with a higher charge. In the systematic name, the name of the metal is followed by the charge on the metal within the parentheses in roman numerals.

3) In the family of two oxoanions, the ion with more oxygen atoms has the non-metal root and a suffix $\text{-}ate$ added to it. The ion with fewer oxygen atoms ahs the non-metal root and the suffix $\text{-}ite$ added to it.

4) For hydrated ionic compounds, the total number of water molecules are represented by the Greek numerical prefixes followed by the word hydrate.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The systematic name for dry ice ${\text{CO}}_2$ is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The general rules for writing the systematic names for covalent compounds are as follows:

1) The element with the lower group number is named first in the systematic name. The element present in the higher group number is named second. While naming the element in the higher group number, the suffix $\text{-}ide$ follows the root name of the element.

2) If both the elements belong to the same group, the element present in the higher period number is named first.

3) To indicate the total number of atoms of each element in the compound, the Greek numerical prefixes are used. For the element named first in the systematic name, the Greek numerical prefix is used only when more than one atoms of the element are present in the compound.
