Explanation

Rules for naming of the coordination compounds :

a) The ligand named first then metal.

b) The charge of metal indicated with the Roman numerals and enclosed in the parenthesis after metal name.

c) The ligands are named in alphabetical order before the metal ion.

d) Ligands that include a numerical prefix in the name use the prefixes bis for 2, tris for 3, or tetrakis for 4 to indicate their number.

e) If the complex ion is an anion, we drop the ending of the metal name and add –ate.

In the given coordination compound, Cr is the chromium metal,   , and are the ligands named as ammine, chloro and sulphato.

The charge on is -1. Ammine is a neutral ligand, chloro is having an oxidation state of -1 and sulphato is having an oxidation state of -2.

x+2(0)+2(-1)+1(-2)=-1

x=+3

Hence, the IUPAC name of is potassium diaaminedichlorosulphato chromate (III)

i dont know

explanation:

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
