Answer:

Trisulfur nonaiodide

Explanation:

The name for a binary molecular compound has the form

Multiplying prefix+name of first element multiplying prefix+stem of second element element+ide (two words)

The multiplying prefixes for three and nine are tri and nona, respectively.

The stem of iodine is iod.

Put them together, and the name of S₃I₉ is

trisulfur nonaiodide.
