Using the IUPAC rules for temporary systematic names (used before a permanent name is approved), the element with atomic number 105 would be called

Aunnilpentium
Bunnilquadium
Cunnilhexium
Dunniloctium

Answer: A

The roots are nil = 0, un = 1, pent = 5. Z = 105 gives un-nil-pent plus the suffix -ium, i.e. unnilpentium.
