Why is a system for naming compounds necessary?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
3 0
It is necessary to make a logical system for naming compounds because there are so many of them and thinking of arbitrary random names for each one and then later remembering them all would be impossible. Also, they need to be all recognized and standardized for global use so as to have everyone use the same system.
