II. Molecular Nomenclature zPrefix System (binary compounds) 1.Less e - neg atom comes first. 2.Add prefixes to indicate # of atoms. Omit mono- prefix on first element. 3.Change the ending of the second element to -ide.

III. Ionic Nomenclature Ionic Formulas zWrite each ion, cation first. Don’t show charges in the final formula. zOverall charge must equal zero. yIf charges cancel, just write symbols. yIf not, use subscripts to balance charges. zUse parentheses to show more than one polyatomic ion. zStock System - Roman numerals indicate the ion’s charge.
III. Ionic Nomenclature Ionic Names zWrite the names of both ions, cation first. zChange ending of monatomic ions to -ide. zPolyatomic ions have special names. zStock System - Use Roman numerals to show the ion’s charge if more than one is possible. Overall charge must equal zero.
III. Ionic Nomenclature zConsider the following: yDoes it contain a polyatomic ion? x-ide, 2 elements no x-ate, -ite, 3+ elements yes yDoes it contain a Roman numeral? xCheck the table for metals not in Groups 1 or 2. yNo prefixes!
