ionic compound nomenclature
Does the cation or anion come first when naming ionic compounds?
What is the cation?
What are binary covalent compounds?
What is a compound that contains 2 nonmetals?
P4O10
What is tetraphosphorus decoxide?
hydrogen chloride
HCl
BaO
What is an ionic compound named barium oxide?
How do you name monatomic anions?
What is the name of the element with its suffix changed to ‘-ide’?
What is unique about naming binary covalent compounds? (hint: think about a system)
What is the prefix system?
Pb(NH4)2
What is lead(II) ammonium?
hexaboron monosilicide
What is B6Si?
NO2
What is a covalent compound named nitrogen dioxide?
How do you name ions that contain hydrogen?
What is the name of the anion starts with hydrogen, & if there are multiple hydrogens, add prefix to hydrogen (ex: dihydrogen phosphate ion, H2PO4-)?
What are all the prefixes Professor Stallings has in his slides?
What is mono = 1, di = 2, tri = 3, tetra = 4, penta = 5, hexa = 6, hepta = 7, octa = 8, nona = 9, and deca = 10?
ZnSO4
What is zinc sulfate?
dihydrogen phosphate
What is H2PO4-?
(NH4)2CO3
What is an ionic compound named ammonium carbonate?
How does naming main group metal cations differ from naming transition metal cations?
What is main group metal ions only have one possible charge, so just add ‘ion’ to the end of the element name, while transition metal ions can form various cations, so the oxidation # is included as a roman numeral?
How do you name binary covalent compounds? Include the specific rules for exceptions!
What is name the elements in order & use the right prefix to indicate the # of atoms present?
What is if only one atom of first element is present, omit prefix ‘mono' and if the prefix ends with a vowel 'o' or 'a' and element starts with vowel, drop the last vowel in prefix?
Co2(CO3)3
What is cobalt(III) carbonate?
lead(II) sulfide
What is PbS?
Sr(H2PO4)2
What is an ionic compound named strontium dihydrogen phosphate?
How do you name oxoanions? Specify rules for when there's just one oxoanion vs multiple.
What is if only one exists, -ate is added as a suffix to the stem of the name of the element?
What is if 2 types of oxoanions form, the ion with less oxygen atoms has the suffix -ite & the ion with more oxygen atoms has the suffix -ate?
What is if 4 types of oxoanions form, the smallest 2 are -ites and biggest 2 are -ates, and the least amount of oxygen ion has prefix hypo- & most amnt of oxygen ion has prefix per-?
Why do we need that system to name covalent compounds?
What is these nonmetals can have numerous oxidation states, so there’s a prefix system to show the proportions in which they are present?
MnCrO4
What is manganese(II) chromate?
iron(II) hydrogen bicarbonate
What is Fe(HCO3)2?
IBr
What is a covalent compound named iodine monobromide?
