Answer

sodium chlorate; we just need to name the first element and the name of the anion. mercury (I) bromide; this is a binary ionic compound, we need to look at the first element (and figure out its charge, since it is a transition metal), name it, and then name the anion. An alternative name would be mercurous bromide.
