Question

Write the names for each of the following ions:

d. P³⁻

Accepted Answer

Hey, everyone, we're asked to provide the name of the following ion N three minus. When we look at our periodic table, we find that N is the element symbol for nitrogen. And here we have a mono atomic anion. Now, when we name a mono atomic anion, we're going to keep the root word of its element name. So in this case, N I T R and we're going to change the ending. So we're going to add the suffix ID E. So we have nitride and to label it as an ion, we're going to add the word ion and our final answer here is going to be nitride ion. Now, I hope this made sense and let us know if you have any questions.
