wouldn't it be uranium dihydrogen ~~per~~ tetraoxide?

[-] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago

I believe that would be H2O2?

H2O4 would be Tetraoxidane if I’m not mistaken, but neither of those takes into account the U (Uranium) at the end there.

Of course, I don’t know much about how things would go beyond production, they may reach with each other and ultimately settle into something else.

you're right, so the original post has not just one but two mistakes

okay but then why is it called "dioxideperoxide"? why is "oxide" twice in there? and why those prefixes?
