Step by step solution

01

Naming monoatomic ions

The first step is to know, how to name monoatomic ions. For metals in groups 1 and 2, and for metals that form cations with a single charge, the name of the metal is followed by 'ion'. For metals that form cations with more than one charge, the charge is indicated by a Roman numeral in parentheses after the name of the metal. For nonmetals, the end of the name of the element is dropped and replaced with 'ide', followed by the word 'ion'.
02

Naming polyatomic ions

Polyatomic ions are composed of more than one atom. Most of them are anions, and their names end in 'ite' or 'ate'. The 'ite' ending indicates a lower oxidation number, while 'ate' indicates a higher one. The number of oxygen atoms can also influence the name: one fewer oxygen atom than the 'ite' form is indicated by the prefix 'hypo-', while one more is indicated by the prefix 'per-'.
03

Naming the given compounds

Now, let’s name given compounds using these rules: (a) \(\mathrm{Ba(NO_{3})_{2}}\) is Barium nitrate. (b) \(\mathrm{HNO_{2}}\) is Nitrous acid. (c) \(\mathrm{CrO_{2}}\) is Chromium(IV) oxide. (d) \(\mathrm{KIO_{3}}\) is Potassium iodate. (e) \(\mathrm{LiCN}\) is Lithium cyanide. (f) \(\mathrm{KIO}\) is Potassium hypoiodite. (g) \(\mathrm{Fe(OH)_{2}}\) is Iron(II) hydroxide. (h) \(\mathrm{Ca(H_{2}PO_{4})_{2}}\) is Calcium dihydrogen phosphate. (i) \(\mathrm{H_{3}PO_{4}}\) is Phosphoric acid. (j) \(\mathrm{NaHSO_{4}}\) is Sodium hydrogen sulfate. (k) \(\mathrm{Na_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7}}\) is Sodium dichromate. (l) \(\mathrm{NH_{4}C_{2}H_{3}O_{2}}\) is Ammonium acetate. (m) \(\mathrm{MgC_{2}O_{4}}\) is Magnesium oxalate. (n) \(\mathrm{Na_{2}C_{2}O_{4}\) is Sodium oxalate.

Dry air is essentially a mixture of the following entities: \(\mathrm{N}_{2}, \mathrm{O}_{2}, \mathrm{Ar},\) and \(\mathrm{CO}_{2} .\) The composition of dry air, in mole percent, is \(78.08 \% \mathrm{N}_{2}, 20.95 \% \mathrm{O}_{2}, 0.93 \% \mathrm{Ar}\) and \(0.04 \% \mathrm{CO}_{2}\). (a) What is the mass, in grams, of a sample of air that contains exactly one mole of the entities? (b) Dry air also contains other entities in much smaller amounts. For example, the mole percent of krypton (Kr) is about \(1.14 \times 10^{-4} \% .\) Given that the density of dry air is about \(1.2 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L}\) at room temperature, what mass of krypton could be obtained from exactly one cubic meter of dry air?
