Interpretation: The importance of having a nomenclature system for chemical compounds is to be stated.
Concept Introduction: Chemical nomenclature is a set of rules or instructions used for naming a chemical compound. There are predefined rules for writing the names as well as chemical formulas of compounds. Different types of compounds have different rules for naming.

Answer to Problem 93A
The need for having a system for writing chemical names or formulas is to ensure that there is no ambiguity concerning the name of any chemical compound.
Explanation of Solution
The system of nomenclature ensures keeping an international standard for naming compounds which makes the communication process easier. Since the same system of naming is used all over the world, the written or spoken chemical names leaves no ambiguity concerning which chemical compound it refers to.
