There are certain rules to follow when naming covalent compounds. But first, let us look at the definition of Covalent Compounds.
<h3>
What are Covalent Compounds?</h3>
When covalent bonds aid the creation of a molecule, in which the atoms have at least one similar pair of valence electrons, a covalent compound is said to have been formed.
A very common example is water (H₂O)
<h3>
How are Covalent Compounds named?</h3>
To name a covalent compound, simply list the first element in the formula using the name of the element, then name the second element by adding the suffix "ide" to the stem of the second element's name.
If there is only one atom in the molecule of the first element, then no prefix should be added.
It is to be noted that if the second element in the compound is oxygen, then we should say:
- monox<em>ide</em> instead of monoox<em>ide</em> and
- triox<em>ide</em> instead of trox<em>ide</em>, all depending on how many atoms that are involved.
See the attached for the prefixes related to the various number of atoms in the compounds.
It is to be noted that the covalent compound to be named here is not stated hence the general answer.

Answer:
Density = Mass / Volume. so, x = 90.5 g / 96 mL ... The Density would be 0.942 g/mL
Answer:
The heat of solution is 1.05 kJ/mol
Explanation:
NaOH → Molar mass 40 g/m
This is the mass in 1 mol
Calorimetry formula:
Q = m . c . ΔT
ΔT = T° final - T° initial = 24.5°C - 18.2°C = 6.3°C
mass = 40 g
c = 4.186 kJ/kg°C (the same as water)
So we have to convert 40 g to kg
40 g/1000 = 0.04 kg
Q = 0.04 kg . 4.186 kJ/kg°C . 6.3 °C = 1.05 kJ
Reducing the concentration of reactants
If no subscript appears, one atom of that element is present.
