What is the correct systematic name for the compound shown here?
Give the systematic name for (a) $\left(\mathrm{NH}_{4}\right)_{3}\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{2}\right)_{6}\right]$ (b) $\left[\mathrm{Ir}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4} \mathrm{Br}_{2}\right] \mathrm{Br}$ (c) $\mathrm{K}_{2}\left[\mathrm{CuCl}_{4}\right]$ (d) $\left[\mathrm{Ru}(\mathrm{CO})_{5}\right]$
Liquid ammonia, $\mathrm{NH}_{3}$, undergoes autoionization, much like water does: $\mathrm{NH}_{3}(\ell)+\mathrm{NH}_{3}(\ell) \longrightarrow \mathrm{NH}_{4}^{+}+\mathrm{NH}_{2}-\quad \mathrm{K}=10^{-35}$ Name and write the formula for a compound that would be considered an acid in liquid ammonia. Name and write the formula for a compound that would be considered a base in liquid ammonia.
