What is the name of the compound Al2(SO3)3?

Sagot :

Take note that this is S03 and not S04.

S03:Sulfite
S04:Sulfate

So the answer  would be Aluminum Sulfite =)


Answer:

Name: Aluminum Sulfite

Explanation:

Systematic nomenclature: dialuminium tris [trioxosulfate (IV)]

Oxoanions: anions derived from removing H + from an oxo acid with a vulgar name:

(SO3)3^-2 (sulfite)

Metal cation according to valence number:

Al (III) or Al+3 (as a cation) (Aluminum)

There are different types of salts, in this case we have a simple salt and the nomenclature for binary substances is used when only one class of cation and one class of anion are present

So:

Al2(SO3)3: Aluminum Sulfite
