(a)
Interpretation:
The formula for the given binary covalent compound is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The compounds which are formed by mixing a nonmetal or two nonmetal elements with one metalloid are known as binary covalent compounds.
The rules for naming the binary covalent compounds are as follows:
• The element’s name that has the lower electronegativity will be written first.
• The element that has the higher electronegativity, its stem name is written first followed by the addition of the suffix –ide at the end.
• The number of elements is represented by the prefix like, mono for
