Chapter 2.7, Problem 1PE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compound $\text{PbO}$ should be named.

Concept Introduction:

Most of the ionic compound are binary compounds thy formed by simply two elements.  The first element is named metal cation after non-metallic anion.  The anion named by taking first part of element name then add –ide.  For example $\text{KBr}$ is named as potassium bromide.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compound ${\text{LiClO}}_{\text{3}}$ should be named.

Concept Introduction:

Rules to naming oxoanions:

• Elimination of all hydrogen ions from ‘ic’acid , then the name of anion ends with ‘ate’.
• Elimination of all hydrogen ions from ‘ous’acid , then the name of anion ends with ‘ite’.
• The name of the anion in which one or more (not all) hydrogens have eliminated must denots the number of H ion present.
