Many transition metals can have multiple different oxidation numbers. When writing out the chemical name, you need to specify the oxidation number with a roman numeral.
For example, Copper (II) oxide would be this: CuO
While Copper (I) oxide would be this: CuO2

When writing the chemical name for a compound with a transition metal, it is important to include the name of the transition metal as well as its oxidation state in Roman numerals. This helps to specify which ion of the transition metal is present in the compound. Additionally, any ligands or other elements in the compound should also be named and included in the chemical name.
