K4[Fe(CN)6]KX4[Fe(CN)X6] is:
A. Potassium hexacyanido ferrate(II)
B. Potassium hexacyanido ferrate(4-)
C. Tetrapotassium hexacyanoferrate
D. All are correct
Actually I had been going through the IUPAC exercise of my book when I encountered just this question.
I know that the correct answer is option A but in the answer key the answer is given as option D.
Can this really happen ? Can a compound have more than one IUPAC name?
Our teacher told that whichever name can be used to deduce the structure of the coordination compound can be termed as the IUPAC name of that compound but I am not at all convinced with this fact.
