a.
To determine:
The role of Roman numeral while naming the ionic compound based on the answer of question number 5 of chapter 3.
Introduction:
Ionic compounds are made up of ions that are bonded by electrostatic forces of attraction. In ionic compounds, cations are defined as the positively charged ions, whereas anions are the negatively charged ions.
