Naming compounds Flashcards
Binary Ionic Cpds M - NM (name to formula)
- Write symbol for each ele
- look at the charges of gr 1A, 2A 3A or nm
- Rapper cross over rule
Binary Ionic Cpds M - NM (formula to name)
-M gets its full name
- Nm gets chopped and ending = “IDE”
Binary Covalent Cpds NM - NM (name to formula)
- no thinking
- use # indicator infront of ele for subscript
Covalent Cpds
share e- (its a bonded)
Ammonia = NH3
Binary Covalent Cpds NM - NM (Formula to name)
- 1st NM gets full name + # indicator
- 2nd NM gets “IDE” ed + # indicator
Transitional metal binary Ionic cpds (Formula to name)
- look at the 2nd ele and put charge in place
- cross over the 2nd charge to 1st ele
- cross up 2nd ele sub to 1st ele charge
- write full M and Roman numerals for its charge
- write Nm “IDE”ed
Transitional metal binary Ionic cpds (name to formula)
- put the eles in place
- put the charge of M from Roman numeral
- put charge of NM
- rapper cross over
