Naming Compounds Flashcards
Has a positive charge is a metal and low Electronegativity
Cat-ion
Has a negative charge non metal and low Electronegativity
An-ion
Cations= same name as element K = potassium (1+) Anion= ide at the endings Fluorine = fluoride (-1) Name = potassium fluoride Equation : KF
Binary ionic compound
Poly atomic atom = SO3 Sulfite(-3) Cation=Sr Strontium(-2) Name : strontium sulfite Equation: Sr3(SO3)2
Naming complex ionic compounds
Polyatomic ions are
Ions already bounded and cannot be changed
Are tin(Sn) and lead (Pb) part of transitional metals
Yes
What’s special about transitional metals ?
They don’t have a fixed charge like metals and non metals
Transitional metal :Fe Iron (2) Anion: O Oxygen(2-) Name: iron(ii) oxide (same rule just use Roman numerals) Equation: FeO
Naming ionic compound with transitional metals
Compounds that Produce of hydrogen ions (H+) when disolved in water
Acids
Acids catnion is always
H (hydrogen)
Ide at the end means
Add Hydro, prefix ic and acid at the end
Ate
Add prefix ic to the the ending and acid
ite
Add prefix ous and acid at the end
Anion : H hydrogen (1)
Polyatomic ion or (anion) PO4 (3-)
Name: phosphoric acid
Equation: H3PO4
Naming acid
Carbonic acid Ic=ate Carbonate= CO3 (-2) H= hydrogen (1) bc it’s an acid Equation: H2CO3
Naming acids
