Question

The ions CIO⁻₄,CIO⁻₃, ClO⁻₂, and ClO⁻ are named respectively:

o Operchlorate, chlorate, chlorite, hypochlorite.
o hypochlorate, chlorate, chlorite, perchlorite.
o hypochlorite, chlorite, chlorate, perchlorate.
o perchlorite, chlorite, chlorate, hypochlorate

Answer 1

The ions CIO⁻₄, CIO⁻₃, ClO⁻₂, and ClO⁻ are named respectively as hypochlorate, chlorite, chlorate, and perchlorate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ions CIO⁻₄, CIO⁻₃, ClO⁻₂, and ClO⁻ are named respectively as hypochlorate, chlorite, chlorate, and perchlorate.

In the case of the oxyanions of halogens:

1. An oxyanion with four oxygen atoms is named by adding the prefix 'per-' to the name of the halogen and replacing the last syllable with '-ate'. For example, (ClO⁻₄) is perchlorate.
2. An oxyanion with three oxygen atoms is named by replacing the last syllable of the halogen name with '-ate'. For example, (CIO⁻₃) is chlorate.

Based on these naming rules, the correct order of the given ions is hypochlorite, chlorite, chlorate, and perchlorate.
