Naming compound

Postby Ai-Tan La 1K » Tue Nov 28, 2023 1:26 pm

I am having trouble naming my chemical compound. The formula is [Co(NH3)5 Cl] Cl2. I named it penta ammine chloro cobalt(III)dichloride but it wrong. I have tried so many other variations and I cannot get it. Can someone help?

I would suggest maybe to try combining it into one word so that it would be something like pentaamminechlorocobalt(III)dichloride.

That did not work sadly. I dont know what else it could be.
