Chemical nomenclature provides systematic naming of chemical compounds. For ionic compounds, cations and anions are named with standard rules (e.g., NaCl: sodium chloride). Covalent compounds use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms (e.g., CO2: carbon dioxide). Organic nomenclature relies on functional groups, chain length, and substituent positions (IUPAC rules). Consistent naming is vital for global communication and information sharing in science.
