Question
11.) $\text{ba(oh)}_2$ (1 point)$\bigcirc$ barium hydroxide$\bigcirc$ barium (ii) hydroxide$\bigcirc$ barium oxygen hydride$\bigcirc$ barium (ii) hydroxide
Brief Explanations
Ba is barium, which is a group 2 metal that only forms a +2 ion. The polyatomic ion here is hydroxide ($\text{OH}^-$). For group 1 and 2 metals with only one common oxidation state, we do not need to include the Roman numeral in the name. The correct name combines the cation name with the polyatomic anion name.
