First of all‚ I would say that the energy system is not very sustainable because it can either be sustainable‚ or not sustainable. The energy resources used by mankind have grown dramatically and it is affecting the environment by leaving negative impact to the environment. Not only the government sector‚ but also the private sectors that are aware of the environment are trying

The process of naming compounds allows chemists to communicate formulae in words rather than in chemical symbols. There are‚ however‚ a few rules about naming compounds which need to be known in order to write a formula in word form or translate a compound in word form into chemical symbols. Ionic compounds If the compound is ionic‚ then the name of the cation (usually metal) comes first‚ followed by the ’compound’ name of the anion. To find the compound name of an anion‚ replace the end of the
