Q

Naming with two oxoanions in the family

A
  • the ion with more O atoms take the nonmetal root and the suffix -ate
  • The ion with fewer O atoms take the nonmental root and the suffix -ite
    ex. SO4²- = sulfate ion
    ex. SO3²- = sulfite ion

Q

Naming with four oxoanions in the family

A
  • ion with most O atoms has the prefix per-, the nonmetal root, and the suffix -ate
    ex. ClO4^- = perchlorate
  • the ion with one fewer O atom has just the root and the suffix -ate
    ex. ClO3^- = Chlorate
  • the ion with two fewer O atoms has just the root and the suffix -ite
    ex. ClO2^- = Chlorite
  • the ion with the least O atoms has the prefix hypo-, the root, and the suffix -ite
    ex. ClO^- = Hypochlorite

Q

Binary ACID Solutions

A

Prefix (hydro) + nonmetal root + suffix (-ic) + seperate word acid
ex. Hydro + chlor + ic + acid = Hydrochloric Acid

32
Q

Oxoacid

A 
Refer to those of oxoanions BUT...
* -ate becomes -ic 
*-ite becomes -ous
*hypo- and per- are retained
ex. BrO4 = perbromate BUT
HBrO4 = perbromic acid
33
Q

Example of an oxoacid

A 
IO2 = iodite BUT
HIO2 = iodous acid
34
Q

Binary covalent compounds

A

formed by the combination of two nonmetals (ex. NH3, CH4, H2O)

35
Q

Naming Binary COVALENT Compounds

A

element with lower group # in the period table comes first in the name, element with higher group # comes second & is named with its root and the suffix -ide

48
Q

Example of molecular mass

A

H2O = (2 x Atomic mass of H) + (1 x atomic mass of O)

49
Q

Molecular formula

A

uses element symbol and, often numerical subscripts to five the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound
ex. water = H2O

50
Q

Structural Formula

A

shows the relative placement and connections of atoms in the molecule
ex. water = H-O-H

51
Q
