Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the elements in the compound KCl: potassium (K) and chlorine (Cl).
Recognize that KCl is an ionic compound formed between a metal (potassium) and a nonmetal (chlorine).
Name the metal (potassium) first, using its elemental name as it is a Group 1 metal with a fixed charge of +1, so no Roman numeral is needed.
Name the nonmetal (chlorine) by changing its ending to '-ide', resulting in 'chloride'.
Combine the names of the metal and the nonmetal to form the correct name: 'potassium chloride'.
