Answer:
Solution:
The 5 compounds with the correct IUPAC names are:
2) : Tetrapyridineplatinum(II) tetrachloridoplatinate(II) (correct charges and suffixes)
3) : Bis(dimethylglyoximato)nickel(II) (neutral complex with a bidentate ligand)
6) : Potassium tetraiodidomercurate(II) (correct anionic suffix '-ate')
8) : Diglycinatocopper(II) (correctly identifies copper's oxidation state)
9) : Potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II) (standard correct IUPAC name)
