Chapter 4.2 Naming Compounds
2
Naming Ionic Compounds
Before you name it, you have to know when you see it! What is an Ionic Compound? How to identify an Ionic Compound?
3
Naming Ionic Compounds
What is an Ionic Compound? How to identify an Ionic Compound? Metal and non-metal bonded together Positive and negative ions IONs and IONic compound
4
Ionic or Covalent Compound?
1. NaCl 2. CH4 3. S5Br18 4. MgO 5. NO
5
Naming Ionic Compounds (copy)
Metal ion = name stays the same Non-metal ion = change the ending to "-ide" Example: NaCl = Sodium Chloride Na = Sodium Cl = Chlorine >>> change ending to chloride
6
Naming Ionic Compounds
Examples: 1. Li3N 2. CaO 3. ZnS 4. AlP
7
Naming Ionic Compounds
Examples: 1. Li3N = Lithium Nitride 2. CaO = Calcium Oxide 3. ZnS = Zinc Sulphide 4. AlP = Aluminum Phosphide
8
Chemical Names to Formulas
Write the chemical formula of Potassium Iodide. Find the charge of each ion Potassium ion = K+1 Iodine ion = I-1 The ratio is 1 to 1, so the formula is KI
9
Chemical Names to Formulas
Write the chemical formula of Potassium Oxide. Find the charge of each ion Potassium ion = K+1 Oxygen ion = O-2 The ratio is 1 to 2, so there must be 2 K for each O = K2O OR cross the charges down
10
Chemical Names to Formulas
Write the chemical formula for Aluminum Nitride. Find the charge of each ion. Aluminum ion = Al+3 Nitrogen ion = N-3 Ratio is 3 to 3, or Al3N3 Reduce like a fraction. AlN

Multivalent Metal Ionic Compounds
- Multi means more than one - Valent refers to the valence electrons So multivalent metals are metals with more than one charge. Example: Copper, Cu (#29) It can be Cu+1 or Cu +2 . Need to know which one!
13
Multivalent Metal Ionic Compounds
Write the chemical formula for: 1. Copper (I) fluoride 2. Copper (II) fluoride 3. Copper (II) nitride 4. Copper (II) oxide
14
Multivalent Metal Ionic Compounds
Write the chemical formula for: 1. Copper (I) fluoride = CuF 2. Copper (II) fluoride = CuF2 3. Copper (II) nitride = Cu3N2 4. Copper (II) oxide = CuO
15
Multivalent Metal Ionic Compounds
Use brackets ( ) and Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, ...) in the chemical name. Examples: Write the chemical name of: 1. CuF 2. CuCl2 3. PbO 4. PbO2
16
Multivalent Metal Ionic Compounds
Use brackets ( ) and Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, ...) in the chemical name. Examples: Write the chemical name of: 1. CuF = Copper (I) Fluoride 2. CuCl2 = Copper (II) Chloride 3. PbO = Lead (II) Oxide 4. PbO2 = Lead (IV) Oxide
17
Polyatomic Ions Poly = many atomic = atoms
Polyatomic Ions = ions with many different atoms. They stick together, treat them as one thing. Look in the table for the name and formula. Example: Sodium Nitrate = NaNO3 Sodium ion = Na+ Nitrate ion = NO3-
18
Polyatomic Ions Use brackets to show how many polyatomic ions.
Example: Zinc Hydroxide Zinc ion = Zn+2 Hydroxide ion = OH-1 Zn(OH)2
19
Polyatomic Ions Examples Write the name of: 1. LiCH3COO 2. Mg3(PO3)2
3. CrSO4 Write the formula of: 4. Calcium Perchlorate 5. Lead (IV) Chromate 6. Ammonium Sulfite
20
Polyatomic Ions Examples Write the name of:
1. LiCH3COO = Lithium Acetate 2. Mg3(PO3)2 = Magnesium Phosphite 3. CrSO4 = Chromium (II) Sulfate Write the formula of: 4. Calcium Perchlorate = Ca(ClO4)2 5. Lead (IV) Chromate = Pb(CrO4)2 6. Ammonium Sulfite = (NH4)2SO3
21
Polyatomic Ions Practice Problems Textbook Page 193
22
Naming Covalent Compounds
Check that it IS a covalent compound first! Two non-metals Recall: Ionic or Covalent Compound? 1. NaCl 2. CH4 3. S5Br18 4. MgO 5. NO
23
Naming Covalent Compounds
Use a prefix to show how many of each element First element - name stays the same. Only add a prefix if there is more than one. Second element - change the ending to "-ide" Example: CO2 = Carbon dioxide
24
Naming Covalent Compounds
Prefixes 1 mono 2 di 3 tri 4 tetra 5 penta 6 hexa 7 hepta 8 octa 9 nona 10 deca
25
Naming Covalent Compounds
Examples Write the name of: 1. P2Br3 2. SO4 3. F5O10 Write the formula of: 1. dicarbon trinitride 2. hexaoxygen heptaiodide 3. octabromine monohydride
26
Naming Covalent Compounds
Write the name of: 1. P2Br3 = diphosphorous tribromide 2. SO4 = sulfur tetraoxide 3. F5O10 = pentafluorine decaoxide Write the formula of: 1. dicarbon trinitride = C2N3 2. hexaoxygen heptaiodide = O6I7 3. octabromine monohydride = Br8H
27
Naming Covalent Compounds
Practice Problems Textbook Pg 195
28
Diatomic Elements H2 = hydrogen N2 = nitrogen O2 = oxygen
F2 = fluorine Cl2 = chlorine Br2 = bromine I2 = iodine
29
Common Mistakes Be careful:
Sulfide = S-2 Sulfate = SO4-2 Sulfite = SO3-2 Sulfur tetraoxide = SO4 Sulfur trioxide = SO3 Nitride = N-3 Nitrate = NO3-2 Nitrite = NO2-1 Nitrogen dioxide = NO2 Nitrogen trioxide = NO3

Naming Everything Ionic, Covalent, Multivalent, Polyatomic will all be mixed together. You need to tell them apart to name them. Practice Problems Textbook Page 197, 201
