Chemistry Flashcards
Ionic Compounds
Cation + Anion
Standard Ionic Compound naming is
Cation name + anion name with an -ide ending
Acids use what element as a cation
H+ or Hydrogen
Binary Acids contain
Hydrogen + A single non metal
Binary Acids naming ends with
Hydro____ic acid
Oxyacids contain
Hydrogen + polyatomic anion
Oxyacids naming rules are
What I ate made me sic
The snake bite was poisonous
Molecular compounds contain
Nonmetal + Nonmetal
With no overall charge
Molecular compound naming is
(prefix)Nonmetal+ (prefix)Nonmetal (-ide ending)
Diatonic elements naming rules are
Just called the element name
How do you find the molecular formula from the empirical formula
N=molecular formula weight/empirical formula weight
- Increases subscripts of empirical formula by n times
How do you determine the empirical formula using stoichiometry and mass percent
Percent to mass
Mass to mole
Divide by small
Multiply till whole
Molar Mass is a
The mass of one mole of a substance
The molar mass will be the same as formula weight in Amu
Decomposition reactions are
Reactions in which one reagent produces two or more products
Combustion Reactions are
A rapid reaction that produces a flame
Many times O2 is a reagent, and CO2 and H2O are products
- Balance C and O first, you may also need to 2x coefficients
Combination Reactions are
Reactions in which two or more reagents form one product
A+B-> C
Group 1A charge?
+1
Group 2A charge?
