Polyatomic ions Flashcards
Formate
HCOO^-
Hydronium
H3O^+
What are monotomic anions and what do their groups include
They are main group elements whose ion charges are predictable
They include main groups 5A, 6A, and 7A
What is the formation of naming monatomic anions
Name of the parent atom base + ide + ion
ex. F^- is Fluoride, N^3- is nitride
What type of bonding occurs within anions
Covalent bonding
What are oxyanions
Polyatomic ions with oxygens bound to other elements
What are patterns in naming polyatomic ions
-ite” form always has 1 less
oxygen than “-ate” form, but
same charge
* oxyanions with more than 2
forms use prefixes “per-” and
“hypo-”
* adding H+ changes the name
and the charge of the oxyanion
