Answer: The chemical name of the covalent compound
is, tetraphosphorous nonaoxide.
Step-by-step explanation:
A covalent compound is a compound where the sharing of electrons takes place between elements where both the elements are non-metals.
The naming of covalent compound is given by:
1. The less electronegative element is written first.
2. The more electronegative element is written second. Then a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.
3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.
Hence, the correct name for the compound
which is a covalent compound is, tetraphosphorous nonaoxide.
