Chemical Formulas and Chemical Compounds Chapter 7
2
Systematic Naming There are too many compounds to remember the names of them all. Compound is made of two or more elements. Name should tell us how many and what type of atoms.
3
Significance of a Chemical Formula Molecular formulas Number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound C 2 H 6 = ethane (2 carbon atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms) Ionic Compounds Represents the simplest whole number ratio of the compounds cations and anions Al 2 (SO 4 ) 3 = aluminum sulfate (2 aluminum ions, 3 sulfate ions)
4
Charges on ions For most of Group A elements, location on the Periodic Table can tell what kind of ion they form Elements in the same group have similar properties. Including the charge when they are ions.
5
2+ 1+ 3+3-2-1- Charge in groups 1A, 2A and 3A is the group number
6
Naming Monatomic Ions 1. Monatomic cations Identified by the element’s name 2. Monatomic anions Drop the ending of the element name Add an “–ide” ending
7
Name these l Na 1+ Sodium ion l Ca 2+ Calcium ion l Al 3+ Aluminum ion l Li 1+ Lithium ion
8
Write Formulas for these l Potassium ion K 1+ l Magnesium ion Mg 2+ l Copper(II) ion Cu 2+ l Chromium(VI) ion Cr 6+ l Barium ion Ba 2+ l Mercury(II) ion Hg 2+
9
Name these l Cl 1- Chloride ion l N 3- Nitride ion l Br 1- Bromide ion l O 2- Oxide ion l Ga 3+ Gallium ion
10
Write these l Sulfide ionS 2- l Iodide ionI 1- l Phosphide ionP 3- l Strontium ionSr 2+

Day 2
12
Binary Ionic Compounds Binary Compounds Compounds composed of two different elements Binary ionic cmpd, total # of positive and negative charges must equal
13
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds Write the symbols for the ions side by side. ALWAYS write the cation first! Al 3+ O 2- Cross over the charges by using the absolute value of each ion’s charge as the subscript for the other ion Al 2 3+ O 3 2- Check that the subscripts are in smallest whole number ratio Al 2 O 3
14
Naming Binary Ionic Compounds Al 2 O 3 1. Name the cation(don’t change) Aluminum 2. Name the anion (drop add-ide) Oxide Aluminum Oxide

16
The Stock System of Nomenclature Most transition metals can have more than one type of charge. Indicate the charge with Roman numerals in parenthesis. Fe 2+ Iron(II) Fe 3+ Iron(III) Roman numerals are never used: For anions For metals that form only one ion Co 2+ Cobalt(II) ion CuCl 2 Copper(II) chloride
17
Naming ions Cont….. A few, like silver, zinc and cadmium only form one kind of ion Don’t get roman numerals Ag + silver ion Zn 2+ zinc ion Cd 2+ cadmium ion
18
Compounds Containing Polyatomic Ions Naming a series of similar polyatomic ions NO 2 - NO 3 - Nitrite Nitrate Most common ion is given –ate ending, ion with one less oxygen –ite Pg 214 Naming compounds containing polyatomic ions Same as for monatomic ions
19
Day 3
20
Molecular Nomenclature Prefix 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.
21
PREFIX mono- di- tri- tetra- penta- hexa- hepta- octa- nona- deca- NUMBER 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 C. Molecular Nomenclature

Oxidation Numbers also known as the oxidation state is a simple record-keeping concept, to help in remembering of formulas and chemical phenomena also allow for easy classification and naming of new compounds Rules see pg 220

Percent Composition the percentage by mass of each element in a compound
31
Click below to watch the Visual Concept. Visual Concept Section 3 Using Chemical Formulas Percentage Composition
32
Find the % composition of Cu 2 S. 100 = %Cu = 127.10 g Cu 159.17 g Cu 2 S 100 = %S = 32.07 g S 159.17 g Cu 2 S 79.852% Cu 20.15% S
33
%Fe = 28 g 36 g 100 = 78% Fe %O = 8.0 g 36 g 100 = 22% O Percent Composition Find the percentage composition of a sample that is 28 g Fe and 8.0 g O.
34
Percentage Composition How many grams of copper are in a 38.0-gram sample of Cu 2 S? (38.0 g Cu 2 S)(0.79852) = 30.3 g Cu Cu 2 S is 79.852% Cu
35
100 = %H 2 O = 36.04 g 147.02 g 24.51% H 2 O Percent Composition Find the mass percentage of water in calcium chloride dihydrate, CaCl 2 2H 2 O?
36
Using Chemical Formulas Formulas mass-sum of all the average atomic masses of all the atoms in the formula H 2 O =18.02 amu A compound’s formula mass is equal to compounds molar mass H 2 O = 2 Moles of Hydrogen 1 mole of Oxygen 18.02 g/mol
37
Empirical Formula Smallest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound C2H6C2H6 CH 3 reduce subscripts
38
Empirical Formula 1. Find mass (or %) of each element. 2. Find moles of each element. 3. Divide moles by the smallest # to find subscripts. 4. When necessary, multiply subscripts by 2, 3, or 4 to get whole #’s.
39
Empirical Formula Find the empirical formula for a sample of 25.9% N and 74.1% O. 25.9 g 1 mol 14.01 g = 1.85 mol N 74.1 g 1 mol 16.00 g = 4.63 mol O 1.85 mol = 1 N = 2.5 O

Molecular Formula “True Formula” - the actual number of atoms in a compound CH 3 C2H6C2H6 empirical formula molecular formula ?
42
Molecular Formula 1. Find the empirical formula. 2. Find the empirical formula mass. 3. Divide the molecular mass by the empirical mass. 4. Multiply each subscript by the answer from step 3.
