Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To write the chemical name of ICl3.

Concept introduction:

Steps to write chemical name of covalent compound:

  • While writing name of the covalent compound (consist of 2 elements), least electronegative element is written first, and most electronegative element is written after that.
  • Then look at the periodic table for the name of the respective element.
  • Prefix are used to describe the number of elements in a molecule which are like mono, di, tri, tetra, penta and so on. And these prefixes should be used for both least and most electronegative atoms according to their number of atoms in a given molecule.
  • Write the name of least electronegative element as it is in periodic table after its respective prefix and then write the name of most electronegative atom with their respective prefix and end it with -ide i.e. -ide must be used as a suffix with the name of most electronegative atom.

Interpretation Introduction
