(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the ionic compound formed from the ions
Concept Introduction:
Chemical formulas and names for ionic compounds containing polyatomic ions:
Ionic compounds containing positive and negative charges present must add to zero.
If more than one polyatomic ion is present in a compound, the chemical formula can be written as a polyatomic ion is enclose in parentheses and a subscript, placed outside of the parentheses. Example-
Sometimes same element is present in two different locations. For example,
(a)
Answer to Problem 4.121EP
The name of the ionic compound formed from the ions
Explanation of Solution
The given name of the compound has
Aluminium ion has
Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is
The metal atom is aluminium cation and polyatomic anion is carbonate ion.
Hence, the name of the compound
