Solution
The correct option is
A
Ununhexium
From the IUPAC nomenclature
Code for 1 is un
Code for 2 is bi
Code for 0 is nil
0 = nil (n)
1 = un (u)
2 = bi (b)
3 = tri (t)
4 = quad (q)
5 = pent (p)
6 = hex (h)
7 = sept (s)
8 = oct (o)
9 = enn (e)
The number 116 has two 1’s so Unun and number 6 is hex. So the IUPAC name of
116 is Ununhexium.
