Questions: Homework 2 Question 15 of 18 (1 point) Question Attempt: 1 of 3 Give the correct name for the following compounds. Part 1 of 4 Cs2 SO4 Part 2 of 4 Mg(CH3 CO2)2

Solution Steps

For each compound, we need to identify the cation (positively charged ion) and the anion (negatively charged ion).

1. Compound: \(\mathrm{Cs}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\)

   • Cation: \(\mathrm{Cs}^{+}\) (Cesium)
   • Anion: \(\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}\) (Sulfate)

2. Compound: \(\mathrm{Mg}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}\right)_{2}\)

   • Cation: \(\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}\) (Magnesium)
   • Anion: \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}\) (Acetate)

1. \(\mathrm{Cs}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\)

   • Combine the names: Cesium Sulfate

2. \(\mathrm{Mg}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}\right)_{2}\)

   • Combine the names: Magnesium Acetate
