Step 1
: Identify the incorrect formula-name pair.

The correct name for the compound $\mathrm{FeSO}_{3}$ is iron(II) sulfate, but the correct formula for iron(II) sulfate is $\mathrm{FeSO}_{4}$.
Therefore, the correct name and formula do not match for this pair.

Step 2
: Mark the correct answer.

The answer is $\square$ D, as the formula $\mathrm{FeSO}_{3}$ is incorrectly named as iron(II) sulfate.

Final Answer

The formula-name pair D) $\mathrm{FeSO}_{3}$ iron(II) sulfate is incorrect.
