Type II Binary Ionic Compounds contain Transition metals (including the Group III, IV, V, VI metals, except for Al) with non-metal ions.  Show the correct name for the following compounds.

Give correct formulas for these Type II binary compounds
copper(II) iodide CuI2 copper(I) oxide Cu2O
iron(II) sulfide FeS manganese(IV) oxide MnO2
gold(III) chloride AuCl3 gold(I) sulfide Au2S
silver bromide* AgBr cadmium sulfide* CdS
vanadium(V) nitride V3N5 chromium(VI) oxide CrO3
lead(IV) sulfide PbS2 zinc selenide* ZnSe
gallium(I) iodide GaI vanadium(III) chloride VCl3
nickel(III) selenide Ni2Se3 iron(III) bromide FeBr3
silver sulfide* Ag2S tin(IV) chloride SnCl4
manganese(II) fluoride MnF2 antimony(V) bromide SbBr5
cobalt(III) oxide Co2O3 titanium(IV) oxide TiO2

Show correct Type II names for the following compounds
FeCl3 iron(III) chloride Au2O gold(I) oxide
FeCl2 iron(II) chloride AuCl3 gold(III) chloride
V2O5 vanadium(V) oxide PbO lead(II) oxide
MnO2 mangenese(IV) oxide Pb2S3 lead(III) sulfide
NiF3 nickel(III) fluoride Hg2F2 mercury(I) fluoride
CuS copper(II) sulfide HgI2 mercury(II) iodide
CuBr copper(I) bromide CdSe cadmium selenide
Fe2O3 iron(III) oxide ZnBr2 zinc bromide*
SnF4 tin(IV) fluoride ScCl3 scandium(III) chloride
Ga2S gallium(I) sulfide MnCl2 mangenese(II) chloride
AgI silver iodide* NiCl2 nickel(II) chloride

*Please note that the transition metals zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and silver (Ag) do not have multiple charges. Therefore, there is no need to place parantheses following their names in compounds, since they have fixed charges of +2, +2 and +1, respectively.
