The correct IUPAC name of is
- (A)Potassium tetraoxopermanganate (VI)
- (B)Potassium tetraoxidomanganate (VI)✓ Correct
- (C)Dipotassium tetraoxidomanganate (VII)
- (D)Potassium tetraoxidomanganese (VI)
Answer: (B)
Solution
Assign the oxidation state of Mn in : with K at +1 and O at ,
In additive IUPAC nomenclature, oxide ligands bonded to a central atom are named "oxido", and the anion of a metal-oxo species takes the "-ate" ending with the oxidation state given in Roman numerals. , with four oxido ligands and manganese in the +6 state, is named tetraoxidomanganate(VI); the balancing potassium cations are simply cited as "potassium". The older "oxo" prefix, the "-ese" ending used for a neutral metal atom, and the +7 oxidation state all misdescribe this compound.
The correct IUPAC name is potassium tetraoxidomanganate(VI).
