Chlorine Dioxide.
It is a covalently bonded atom, therefor it uses prefixes.
I believe the question is referring to an ion, therefore the correct name is the chlorite ion.
It's dichlorine monoxide. Both elements are nonmetals, so you use prefixes. "Di" is 2, and "mono" is 1.
cl20 is .........................................................
chlorine dioxide
ClO2- is chlorite
chlorite ion
Chlorine dioxide
Chloride
Oxygen-diclorine
There is ClO2 and ClO2^-. For the chlorite anion (ClO2^-) the Cl will have 10 electrons and will violate the octet rule. For ClO2, all elements will have 8 electrons.
ClO2^- is chlorite anion Do not confuse with ClO3^- is chlorate anion Cl^- is chloride anion.
I'm not sure what "balanced" specifically means but I'll do my best to help. Calcium (Ca) has a charge of 2- and Chlorite (ClO2) has a charge of 1- When you name chemicals you combine them with their charges: Ca2- (ClO2)1- And then you cross the charges to the other element: Ca(ClO2)2 Make sense?
No, KClO2 will dissociate in water: KClO2 → K+ + ClO2- The ClO2- ion will remove protons from the solution (ClO2- + H2O → HClO2 + OH-) and leave hydroxide ions, making the solution basic.
ClO2-
The calcium salt should be Ca(ClO2)2, Calcium chlorite.
chlorite ion
ClO2
It is Calcium chlorite Ca(ClO2)2
There is ClO2 and ClO2^-. For the chlorite anion (ClO2^-) the Cl will have 10 electrons and will violate the octet rule. For ClO2, all elements will have 8 electrons.
ClO2 → Cl + O2
Calcium Chlorite (used in domestic swimming pools)
ClO2^- is chlorite anion Do not confuse with ClO3^- is chlorate anion Cl^- is chloride anion.

Ca(ClO2)2 is the chemical formula of calcium chlorite.
