Solution: Use the nomenclature flow chart (the following figure) to name each compound. P2S5

Problem

Use the nomenclature flow chart (the following figure) to name each compound.
Inorganic nomenclature flow chart. Ionic, metal + nonmetal: metal forms only one ion: name using name of metal ion then root of nonmetal ion plus suffix -ide, CaI2 is calcium iodide; metal forms more than one ion: name using the name of metal ion followed by charge on the metal in roman numerals in parentheses then the root of the anion plus suffix -ide, FeCl3 is iron (III) chloride. Molecular, nonmetals only: name using the prefix then name of 1st element then prefix followed by root name of 2nd element with -ide suffix, P2O5 is diphosphorus pentoxide. Acids, hydrogen with one or more nonmetals: binary acids: two elements: name using prefix hydro- then base name of nonmetal plus suffix -ic then acid, HCl is hydrochloric acid. Oxyacids contain oxygen, -ate oxyanion is named with base name of oxyanion with suffix -ic acid, H3PO4 is phosphoric acid; -ite oxyanion is named with base name of oxyanion with suffix -ous acid, H2SO3 is sulfurous acid.
