In some cases the Roman numeral in a name is the same as a subscript in the formula, and in some cases it is not. Provide an example (formula and name) for each of these cases. Explain why the Roman numeral is not necessarily the same as the subscript.
Interpretation:
To determine, in some cases the Roman numeral in a name is the same as a subscript in the formula and in some case it is not. Provide an example of each of these cases. Explain why the Roman numeral is not necessarily the same as the subscript
Concept introduction: The Roman numeral in the name of the compound does not represent the number of ions present in the compound but represents the charge on the ion present in the compound.
Answer to Problem 1ALQ
The example for the case when the Roman numerical in a name is the subscript in the formula:
Formula:
Formula:
The example for the case when the Roman numerical in a name is not the subscript in the formula:
Formula:
Explanation of Solution
The Roman numeral in the name of the compound does not represent the number of ions present in the compound but represents the charge on the ion thus; it is not necessarily the same as the subscript of the molecular formula.
The example for the case when the Roman numerical in a name is the subscript in the formula:
Formula:
Formula:
The example for the case when the Roman numerical in a name is not the subscript in the formula:
Formula:
Thus, Roman numeral are shown in name only for those metals which shows variable valences.

- Hi!! Please provide a solution that is handwritten. Ensure all figures, reaction mechanisms (with arrows and lone pairs please!!), and structures are clearly drawn to illustrate the synthesis of the product as per the standards of a third year organic chemistry course. ****the solution must include all steps, mechanisms, and intermediate structures as required. Please hand-draw the mechanisms and structures to support your explanation. Don’t give me AI-generated diagrams or text-based explanations, no wordy explanations on how to draw the structures I need help with the exact mechanism hand drawn by you!!!
