1. Naming Acids and Bases

2. Naming Acids and Bases Acids: Bases:
a compound that contains one or more hydrogen atoms and produces hydrogen ions (H+).
Bases:
An ionic compound that produced a hydroxide ion (OH-) when dissolved in water.

3. Naming Acids Three Rules:
1) When the name if an the anion end in –ide, the acid name begins with hydro-. The end of the name has the suffix –ic and is following by the word acid.
Example: HCl
The anion is chloride goes to chloric
Begins with hydro-. Goes to hydrochloric
Followed by the word acid. Goes to hydrochloric acid.
HCl is hydrochloric acid.

4. Naming Acids
2) When the anion name ends in –ite, the acid name will end in –ous, followed by the word acid.
Example: H2SO3
The anion is sulfite (SO3)
The anion sulfite goes to sulfurous
Followed by the word acid. Sulfurous acid
H2SO3 is sulfurous acid.

5. Naming Acids
3) When the anion name ends in –ate, the acid name changes the suffix to –ic, and it is followed by the word acid.
Example: HNO3
The anion is nitrate.
The anion nitrate goes to nitric
Followed by the word acid. Nitric acid.
HNO3 is nitric acid.

6. Naming Bases
Bases are named in the same way as other ionic compounds– the name of the CATION is following by the name of the ANION.
Example: NaOH is sodium hydroxide

7. Practice Give the names of these acids: HNO2 H2S H2CrO4
Give the names of these bases:
LiOH
Mg(OH)2
Pb(OH)2
Al(OH)3

8. Practice Answers Give the names of these acids: HNO2 Nitrous Acid
H2S Hydrosulfuric Acid
H2CrO4 Chromic Acid
Give the names of these bases:
LiOH
Mg(OH)2
Pb(OH)2
Al(OH)3

Ask and you shall receive!
If you do not work on study guide or ask questions, I WILL give you work to do. I have another assignment ready.
