Chapter 4, Problem 4.85EP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of binary ionic compound ${\text{Au}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

An ionic compound has two elements one is metal and another one is non-metal.  The metal ion has always positive charge and the non-metal ion has always negative ion in binary compounds.  Example: ${\text{NaCl, CO}}_{\text{2}}$.

The following rule can be used for the naming of binary ionic compounds.

The full name of the metallic element is given first, followed by a separate word containing the stem of the metallic element name and the suffix –ide.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of binary ionic compound $\text{NiO}$ is to be written.

Concept Introduction:

An ionic compound has two elements one is metal and another one is non-metal.  The metal ion has always positive charge and the nonmetal ion has always negative ion in binary compounds.  Example: ${\text{NaCl, CO}}_{\text{2}}$.

The following rule can be used for the naming of binary ionic compounds.

The full name of the metallic element is given first, followed by a separate word containing the stem of the metallic element name and the suffix –ide.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of binary ionic compound ${\text{SnO}}_{\text{2}}$ is to be written.

Concept Introduction:

An ionic compound has two elements one is metal and another one is non-metal.  The metal ion has always positive charge and the nonmetal ion has always negative ion in binary compounds.  Example: ${\text{NaCl, CO}}_{\text{2}}$.
