Final answer:

The question requires naming chemical compounds based on given formulas. Correct naming conventions use IUPAC standards, which consider the numbers of atoms in each compound to assign prefixes such as mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, and so on. Some formulas in the question are correct, while others are typos or incomplete.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct names for the following formulas are important for understanding chemical compounds:
XeF4 is Xenon Tetrafluoride.
Se should be selenium.

CO is carbon monoxide.

P4O10 is tetraphosphorus decaoxide.

SIgn includes a typo and does not represent a valid chemical formula.

ClS2 appears to be missing information for a correct chemical name.

NBr5 is not a common chemical compound and may indicate a typo; however, the closest expected formula would be nitrogen pentabromide assuming 'n' stands for nitrogen.

Pls appears to be a typo and does not correspond to a known chemical compound.
PCl3 is phosphorus trichloride.

Note: Some items in the list are not well-defined chemical formulas or contain typos and thus, correct names cannot be assigned. For the well-defined chemical compounds, the names have been provided with their respective standard nomenclature, and the stoichiometric coefficients have been used to derive the correct prefix as per IUPAC naming conventions.
