Explanation:

In naming ionic compounds, we name the metal first followed by the non - metal or polyatomic ion. For $Zn(C_2H_3O_2)_2$, zinc is the metal and acetate ($C_2H_3O_2^-$) is the polyatomic ion. For $Mg(NO_3)_2$, magnesium is the metal and nitrate ($NO_3^-$) is the polyatomic ion.

Answer:

Part A: Zinc acetate
Part B: Magnesium nitrate
