Answer

Explanation of Solution AlCl3, aluminum chloride; CrCl3, chromium(III) chloride; ICl3, iodine trichloride; AlCl3 and CrCl3 are ionic compounds subsequent the rules for designation ionic compounds

Work Step by Step

Interpretation: The nomenclature rules used in given compounds has to be discussed. Concept introduction: -In some anions are called oxyanions two members in such a series, the name of the one with the smaller number of oxygen atoms ends in -The cation is always named rst and the anion second. -Monatomic cation takes its name from the rst name of the element. -Na is called sodium in the names of compounds containing this ion. -A monatomic anion is named with taking the toot of the element name and adding -ide. Thus the lon is called chloride.
