Answer: The correct name for the compound is, Dicarbon triiodide.
Explanation:
is a covalent compound because in this compound the sharing of electrons takes place between carbon and iodine.. Both the elements are non-metals. Hence, it will form covalent bond.
The naming of covalent compound is given by:
The less electronegative element is written first.
The more electronegative element is written second. Then a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.
If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.
Hence, the correct name for the compound is, Dicarbon triiodide..
Answer: The chemical formula for the formula given in the image is .
Explanation: There are many ways in which a model can be represented:
- Molecular Formula
- Ball and Stick formula
- Expanded Formula
- Condensed Formula
- Skeletal Formula
This molecule is represented by the Expanded Structural Formula and by seeing in the image we can count the number of each element present.
Number of Carbon atoms present = 4
Number of Hydrogen atom present = 9
Number of Oxygen atom present = 2
Correct representation for this will be .
