(a)
Interpretation:
The formula of the given compound has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
For naming a compound from the given molecular formula, first it has to be classified as molecular ot ionic. If the given molecular formula of the compound contains only non-metals, then the compound is molecular. Molecular compounds are named using the Greek prefixes with the elements in the same order as in the formula.
For deriving formula of a given compound, the name of the element given are entered as symbols and the prefix are translated to subscripts.
