Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The formula of selenium dioxide needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Most of the covalent compounds with two elements are named to indicate the identity and number of elements they contain. In the name of the covalent compound, the name of first non-metal is written first followed by the name of the second non-metal by adding suffix -ide. Prefixes are added to the name to show the number of atoms of each element.
