Name each of the following compounds:

\((a){\rm{Te}}{{\rm{O}}_2}\)

\((b){\rm{S}}{{\rm{b}}_2}\;{{\rm{S}}_3}\)

\((c){\rm{Ge}}{{\rm{F}}_4}\)

\((d){\rm{Si}}{{\rm{H}}_4}\)

\((e){\rm{Ge}}{{\rm{H}}_4}\)

A specific set of rules applies while naming chemical compounds. Certain prefixes like di-, tri-, tetra-, etc. are used based on the elements’ count and then their name is mentioned.Acompound’s name ends with “-ide”if they arebinary compounds.
