Coordination compounds: Nomenclature

The video tutorial explains the IUPAC nomenclature rules for naming coordination complexes. It covers the order of naming ions, naming the coordination sphere, and ending the name with appropriate suffixes. The tutorial provides examples to practice naming compounds and demonstrates how to derive chemical formulas from given IUPAC names.

What is the role of the suffix in the names of anionic complexes?

What is the correct name for the complex K3[Fe(CN)6]?

Describe the process of naming a complex with both neutral and anionic ligands.
