a. Fe2+: ferrous ion; Fe3+: ferric ion

b. Sn2+: stannic ion; Sn4+: stannous ion

c. Co2+: cobalt(II) ion; Co3+: cobaltous ion

d. Pb2+: lead ion; Pb4+: lead(IV) ion

The correct option is a

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, the knowledge of ion naming is been tested. Below, the ions and there correct names will be presented

Pb2+ is lead (II) ion

Pb4+ is lead (IV) ion

Co2+ is cobalt (II) ion and it is also called cobaltous ion

Co3+ is cobalt (III) ion

Sn2+ is tin (II) ion and it is also called stannous ion

Sn4+ is tin (IV) ion and it is also called stannic ion

Fe2+ is iron (II) ion and it is also called ferrous ion

Fe3+ is iron (III) ion and it is also called ferric ion

From the above, we can deduce that option a is the one that has it's symbol correctly attached to it's name
