Brief Explanations

For naming binary covalent compounds like \(I_2O_5\), we use prefixes to indicate the number of each atom. The first element is named with its elemental name (here, 'iodine'), and the second element (oxygen) has its name changed to '-oxide'. The prefix for two iodine atoms is 'di -' (but we usually omit 'di -' for the first element if it's '1' which it's not here, but it's still acceptable to use or omit for the first element in some naming conventions, and for the five oxygen atoms, the prefix is 'penta -'.

Answer:

diiodine pentoxide
