Daily Oral Review (DOR)
What are you most excited about learning in chemistry? What do you hope to do when you finish high school? What is your favorite school subject? What should I know about you so I can help you succeed in chemistry?
3
What’s in a name?
4
LOL ASAP FYI BRB Chemical formulas are shorthand method.
5
What are chemical formulas? What can a chemical formula tell us?
Number of atoms of a particular element present in a chemical compound Ex. CO2, NO2 For ionic compounds, the ratio between the positive and negative ions within the chemical compound Ex. NaCl, MgCl2 Monoatomic ions— Ions originating from ONE atom Cation—named by element Anion—named by element, drop ending and add –ide ending Ex. O-2, N-3, Mg+2
6
C6H12O6
7
Chemical Formulas---Ionic Compounds
8
Binary Compounds—Writing Chemical formulas
1) Cation, Anion. (write element symbols) 2) Write oxidation number/charge on each element. 3) Balance charges by the smallest common multiplier between the two elements. Charges must add to 0 for a neutral compound. 4) Add the subscripts for each element in the chemical compound. Dealing with two elements “bi” –metal/nonmetal
9
Example 1: Sodium chloride “salt”
NaCl
10
Example 2: Aluminum oxide
Al2O3
11
You try….. Magnesium bromide Lithium chloride MgBr2 LiCl
12
5) If the first element is a transition element, the oxidation number or charge of the element is given by a Roman numeral (I, II, III, IV, etc.) following the element name. Exceptions: Ag+1 and Zn+2—they will always have these charges.
13
Example 3: Tin (IV) sulfide
SnS2
14
Example 4: Iron (III) oxide
Fe2O3
15
You Try….. 1) Zinc oxide 2) Mercury (II) fluoride
1) ZnO 2) HgF2
16
Try….. Calcium chloride Copper (I) oxide Sodium bromide
Potassium sulfide Calcium oxide CaCl2 Cu2O NaBr KS2 CaO
17
What are polyatomic ions?
2 or more ions combined together Look at your reference guide
18
Polyatomic Chemical Compounds—Writing Chemical Formulas.
1) Cation, Anion—reference table, Element Symbols 2) Immediately put ( ) around polyatomic ion 3) Write the oxidation number/charge on each element and polyatomic ion. 4) Balance charges by the smallest common multiplier. Charges must add to 0 for a neutral compound. 5) Add the subscripts for each element/polyatomic ion and drop the ( ) around polyatomic if you can. *Polyatomic ions: place polyatomic ions in parentheses when adding subscript (ex. (NO3)2) **1st step—write the element symbol or polyatomic ion symbol for each. IMMEDIATELY enclose polyatomic ions in ()
19
Example 1: Silver nitrate
AgNO3
20
Example 2: Magnesium acetate
Mg (CH3CO2)2
21
You try….. 2) Calcium carbonate 3) Magnesium Phosphate
1) Ammonium chloride 2) Calcium carbonate 3) Magnesium Phosphate 4) Ammonium sulfate NH4Cl CaCO3
22
Chemical Formulas—Covalent Compounds
23
Binary Compounds—Writing Chemical formulas (Cont.)
6) If a binary compound has a prefix or prefixes in front of an element name, these prefixes are the subscripts for that element in the chemical formula. Prefixes represent the number of element atoms present in a molecule of the chemical compound.
24
Prefixes 1 mono 6 hexa 2 di 7 hepta 3 tri 8 octa 4 tetra 9 nona
5 penta deca
25
Example 1: Carbon monoxide
CO
26
Example 2: Carbon dioxide
CO2
27
You Try….. Diphosphorus trioxide Iodine heptafluoride
Carbon tetrachloride
28
Classwork: 1) Potassium sulfate 12. Sodium phosphate
2) nitrogen dioxide Dinitrogen pentaoxide 3) sulfur tetrabromide Carbon tetrahydride 4) magnesium phosphate Calcium nitrate 5) sodium sulfate 6) phosphorus pentachloride 7) selenium trichloride 8) chromium (III) nitrite 9) iodine dioxide 10) magnesium hydroxide 11) Mercury (II) hydroxide
