How do you name p2s5?
How do you go about naming a compound like P2S5? Is there a specific naming convention for phosphorus and sulfur compounds, or do you follow a general rule of thumb? Is the name derived from the number of atoms of each element present, or is there more to it? How does one distinguish between similar compounds with different names? Additionally, are there any common aliases or abbreviations used for P2S5 in the scientific community? I'm curious about the thought process behind naming such compounds and how it relates to their properties and uses.
