Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of given binary compound is to be written.
Concept introduction:
To name a compound, certain rules are followed. The given compounds are binary compounds.
Binary compounds are of three types:
- Type-I: Compound in which a metal forms ionic bond with a non-metal and the metal can form only one type of ions.
- Type-II: Compound in which a metal forms ionic bond with a non-metal and the metal can form more than one type of ions.
- Type-III: Compound in which a non-metal forms bond with a non-metal.

Answer to Problem 12A
Dinitrogentetraoxide
Explanation of Solution
The structure shows that formula is
Rules for naming Type-III compounds:
- It is name by writing the name of first element as same as element.
- Second element in anionic form and prefixes are used to denote the number of atoms. Prefix mono is not used for 1 element.
