(a)
Interpretation:
Interpret the name of CuCl2 is copper (i) chloride or not.
Concept Introduction:
The more the element is electropositive in nature, more it releases electron and thus its oxidation state is denoted by roman numerical after the name of cation.
For example in CuCl2, Cu having + 2 state and thus the name can be written as copper (ii) chloride.
Hence, charge of element is written as number of charge denoted with roman number.
(b)
Interpretation:
Interpret the name of Ag2 O is silver oxide or not.
Concept Introduction:
The more the element is electropositive in nature, more it releases electron and thus its oxidation state is denoted by roman numerical after the name of cation.
For example in CuCl2, Cu having + 2 state and thus the name can be written as copper (ii) chloride.
Hence, charge of element is written as number of charge denoted with roman number.
(c)
Interpretation:
Interpret the name of Li2 O is lithium oxide or not.
Concept Introduction:
The more the element is electropositive in nature, more it releases electron and thus its oxidation state is denoted by roman numerical after the name of cation.
For example in CuCl2, Cu having + 2 state and thus the name can be written as copper (ii) chloride.
Hence, charge of element is written as number of charge denoted with roman number.
(d)
Interpretation:
Interpret the name of CaS is calcium (ii) sulfide or not.
Concept Introduction:
The more the element is electropositive in nature, more it releases electron and thus its oxidation state is denoted by roman numerical after the name of cation.
For example in CuCl2, Cu having + 2 state and thus the name can be written as copper (ii) chloride.
Hence, charge of element is written as number of charge denoted with roman number.
(e)
Interpretation:
Interpret the name of Cs2 S is cesium sulfide or not.
Concept Introduction:
The more the element is electropositive in nature, more it releases electron and thus its oxidation state is denoted by roman numerical after the name of cation.
For example in CuCl2, Cu having + 2 state and thus the name can be written as copper (ii) chloride.
Hence, charge of element is written as number of charge denoted with roman number.
