Interpretation:
The correct name of the given compounds is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The element symbols and subscripts in an ionic compound are represented by the help of a chemical formula.
While writing chemical formula for an ionic compound the symbol of the metal (cation) is written first, followed by the symbol of non-metal.
Ionic compound is a compound consisting of ions having electrostatic interaction between them which is termed as ionic bonding.
For naming of ionic compounds, the name of the metal (cation) written first, followed by the name of non-metal (anion) with suffix
