3. Naming Ions
9.1

4. Monatomic Ions
Monatomic ions consist of a single atom with a positive or negative charge resulting from the loss or gain of one or more valence electrons

5. How can you determine the charges of monatomic (metal) ions?
Cations
Metallic elements lose electrons
Key Question
How can you determine the charges of monatomic (metal) ions?
Groups 1A, 2A and 3A metals form cations with positive charges equal to their group number.
Name cations by adding ion to the end of the name of the element
For example, Calcium as an ion would be referred to as calcium ion, which is Ca2+ , not Ca.

6. Practice Naming Cations
Write the symbol and the name of the ion that will form from the following:
Potassium
Aluminum
Strontium
Lithium

7. How can you determine the charges of monatomic (nonmetal) ions?
Anions
Nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form anions, the charge of the ion is negative
Key Question
How can you determine the charges of monatomic (nonmetal) ions?
The charge of any ion of a Group A nonmetal is determined by subtracting 8 from the group number
The anion names start with the stem of the element name and ends in -ide
For example, chlorine as an ion would be referred to as chloride, which is Cl-, not Cl.

8. Practice Naming Anions
Write the symbol and the name of the ion that will form from the following:
Fluorine
Nitrogen
Selenium
Phosphorus
Bromine

9. Metals That Form More Than One Ion
Many of the transition metals form more than one cation with different ionic charges
Key Question
How can you determine the charges of monatomic (transition metal) ions?
The number of electrons lost
We will use the stock system when naming transition metal ions
Place the number of electrons inside of parentheses
For example, if iron loses 2 electrons it would be referred to as iron (II), not just iron! It’s symbol would be Fe2+.

10. Practice Naming Transition Metal Ions
Write the symbol and the name of the ion that will form from the following:
Copper (lose 1 electron)
Iron (lose 3 electrons)
Lead (lose 4 electrons)
Tin (lose 2 electrons)
Copper (lose 2 electrons)

11. Polyatomic Ions
Key Question How do polyatomic ions differ from monatomic ions? How are they similar? A polyatomic ion is composed of more than one atom, where as a monatomic ion consists of only one. Both monatomic ions and polyatomic ions behave as a single unit and carries a charge

Take note of the endings –ite and –ate
These endings relate to the amount of oxygen atoms present
-ite ending has one less oxygen that the –ate

28. Naming Binary Molecular Compounds
Use prefixes when naming binary molecular compounds
The prefixes tell the number of each type of atom present in the molecule
You MUST MEMORIZE the prefixes on page 281 in the blue book or page 269 in the red book!

45. The Laws Governing How Compounds Form
9.5

46. The Laws of Definite and Multiple Proportions
These laws describe the proportions in which elements combine to form compounds
The rules for naming and writing formulas obey these rules

47. Law of Definite Proportions
Law of definite proportions states that in samples of any chemical compound, the masses of the elements are always in the same proportions Key Question How is the law of definite proportions consistent with Dalton’s atomic theory? Dalton believed that atoms would combine in simple-whole number ratios; therefore, if the atoms are fixed, then their masses must also be fixed

48. Law of Multiple Proportions
Law of multiple proportions states that whenever that same two elements form more than one compound, the different masses of one element that combine with the same mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers
Examples page 290

CuCl2
