<u><em>Lithium iodide</em></u> should be used for the ionic compound LiI
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
The naming of chemical compounds is giving a special name to a compound that aims to facilitate the classification of compounds and facilitate the identification of a compound. The rules for naming chemical compounds have been determined by the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry)
This nomenclature includes the naming of ion compounds, covalent compounds, and polyatomic
For ionic compounds consisting of cations (ions +) and anions (ions -)
The naming is preceded by the cation then the anion with the -ide suffix added
Generally for this ion compound consists of metal elements as cations and non-metals as anions
Metal: cation, positively charged.
Nonmetal: negative anion.
The anion cation's charge is crossed
The Li element is in group 1A (alkali metal) with a charge of +1 (cation)
The I element is in group VIIA (halogen) with a charge of -1 (anion)
The naming is preceded by the cation Li : Lithium
then the anion I : Iodide
So LiI : Lithium Iodide
The prefix mono, di, tri, tetra, penta etc. for non metal element with non metal element compound
