Chapter 6, Problem 31E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The systematic name of ${\text{LiMnO}}_{\text{4}}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Ternary compounds are those ionic compounds that contain metal ions connected to two other elements. They have a monoatomic metal cation and an oxyanion; that is, polyatomic in their formulas. In the chemical formula of ternary compounds, the cation is present before the anion. They are named by adding the suffixes -ate and –ite.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The systematic name of $\text{Sr}{\left({\text{ClO}}_{\text{2}}\right)}_{\text{2}}$ is to be stated.
