Chemical Compound Quiz Sodium chloride is a flavorful addition to many foods. What is the common name? Salt
5
Review of Oxidation Numbers All compounds have an electrical charge of zero (they are neutral). An oxidation number indicates the charge on the atom (or ion) when electrons are lost, gained, or shared in chemical bonds.
6
Oxidation Numbers A sodium atom always ionizes to become Na + (a charge of +1) when it combines with other atoms to make a compound. Therefore, we say that sodium has an oxidation number of 1 +. What is chlorine’s oxidation number?

You Might Be a Redneck If… You take your dog for a walk and both use the same tree. You burn your yard rather than mow it.
10
Ionic Bonds On the periodic table, strong electron donors are on the left side (alkali metals). Strong electron acceptors are on the right side (halogens). The further apart two elements are on the periodic table, the more likely they are to form an ionic compound.
12
Covalent Bonds Covalent compounds form when elements have roughly equal tendencies to accept electrons. Elements that are both nonmetals and therefore close together on the periodic table tend to form covalent compounds.
13
Oxidation Numbers, Lewis Structures And Chemical Formulas Remember, the oxidation numbers for all the atoms in a compound must add up to zero.
14
Multiple Oxidation Numbers Some periodic tables list multiple oxidation numbers for most elements. This is because more complex bonding is possible.

Naming Compounds and Writing Formulas
16
Naming Binary Ionic Compounds: At the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to: 1. Name a binary ionic compound with a metal that has one oxidation number using standard naming procedures 2. Name a binary ionic compound with a metal that has multiple oxidation numbers using the Roman system 3. Write the formula of a binary ionic compound if given the name
17
6 Types Of Chemical Compounds Binary ionic - metal ion – nonmetal ion Binary molecular - two nonmetals Ternary ionic - at least one ion is a polyatomic ion Binary acid - H – nonmetal Ternary acid - H – Polyatomic ion Base- metal ion – OH
18
Naming Compounds with Ionic Bonds
19
Tips To Keep In Mind When Naming And Writing Formulas: Always keep your Periodic Table handy – You should have it in front of you ALWAYS when you are naming and writing formulas. metalsRemember that metals (except Hydrogen) are found to the left of the stairstep on the Periodic Table. NonmetalsNonmetals are found on the right side of the stairstep of the Periodic Table. MetalloidsMetalloids are the 6 elements on or below the stairstep except Al, Po and At. For naming purposes they will tend to behave like nonmetals.
21
Naming Binary Compounds A binary ionic compound is held together by ionic bonds. Binary molecular compounds consist of covalently bonded atoms. Each type of compound has its own naming rules.
22
How Do You Name Binary Ionic Compounds? (Composed Of Two Elements – A Metal And A Nonmetal) Name the first ion From groups 1, 2, 3, 13, zinc, cadmium, or silver. (You must use a Roman Numeral with the name for the other metals – we’ll discuss this later.) Name the second ion changing the suffix to –ide.
23
Naming Binary Ionic Compounds MgBr 2 is magnesium (name of first element) + brom (root name of second element) + ide suffix = magnesium bromide
24
Examples NaCl Name the metal ion Sodium Name the nonmetal ion, changing the suffix to –ide. Chloride CaO Calcium Oxide Al 2 S 3 AluminumSulfide MgI 2 MagnesiumIodide
25
Redneck Hotel!
26
Examples BaNa 2 You should recognize a problem with this one This is two metals – not a binary ionic compound Banana The name of this is Banana (haha!!) What is the name of this compound: HIJKLMNO? WATER – “H” to “O” You have to admit – that was funny!
27
Exit Quiz LiCl Name the metal ion Lithium Name the nonmetal ion, changing the suffix to –ide. Chloride CaSe Calcium Selenide Ga 2 S 3 GalliumSulfide MgF 2 MagnesiumFluoride
28
What About The Transition Metals And Using Roman Numerals? How Does That Work? Let’s See. FeO Notice – metal and nonmetal. Name the first ion. Since the first ion is a transition element, you must use a Roman Numeral to represent the charge. How do you know the charge? Deductive reasoning. All compounds are neutral. Oxygen has a -2 charge (group 16) Therefore, iron must have a +2 charge since there is one iron and one oxygen. Iron gets a Roman Numeral (II). Iron(II) Oxide Isn’t this easy and FUN!!!
29
Cu 2 S Name the first ion. Since it is a transition metal, you must use a Roman Numeral. Which Roman Numeral? The Roman Numeral is the same as the charge of the ion. How do you find the charge? Deductive reasoning! All compounds are neutral Sulfur has a -2 charge (group 16) There are two coppers Therefore each copper must have a +1 charge for the compound to be neutral Copper(I) Sulfide
30
MnO 2 Name the first ion. Since it is a transition metal, you must use a Roman Numeral. How do you determine the Roman Numeral? It is the same as the charge. What is the charge of Mn? Oxygen (group 16) has a -2 charge and a total of -4 charge. There are two oxygens with one manganese. Therefore Mn must have a +4 charge for this compound to be neutral. Manganese(IV) oxide

Things You Can Learn From Your Dog!! When it is hot outside, drink lots of water. Take naps.
32
Cu 2 O and CuO ____ Copper (II) oxide Copper is +2 _____ Copper (I ) oxide Copper is +1 So Why Must We Use Roman Numerals With Transition Elements? single, definite charges.The metals in groups 1, 2, 3, and 13 have single, definite charges. +1Group 1 metals have a +1 charge. +2Group 2 metals have a +2 charge. +3Groups 3 and 13 metals have a +3 charge. Transition metals may have multiple charges – usually two different positive charges. For example, there are two copper oxide compounds: We can’t just say Copper oxide. Which one of these is Copper oxide? We must distinguish these by using a Roman Numeral
33
And Remember, There Are Three Transition Elements Which Do Not Require A Roman Numeral Because They Have Single Definite Charges. These Are: Zinc – Zn 2+ Cadmium – Cd 2+ Silver – Ag + You need to remember the charges for these. Ag 2 O Name the first ion. Silver Name the second ion changing the suffix to –ide. oxide ZnCl 2 Name the first ion. Name the second ion changing the suffix to –ide. Zincchloride No Roman Numerals needed for these.
34
How Do You Write Formulas For Binary Ionic Compounds Given The Name? Two Simple Steps: 1.Write the symbol and charge of each ion 2.Balance the charges by providing subscripts Magnesium chloride Write the symbol and charge of each ion Mg 2+ Cl - Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. Subscripts tell how many of each atom is present. You need a second Cl -1 to balance the charges Cl - MgCl 2
35
Iron (III) bromide Write the symbol and charge of each ion. The charge of the iron is provided by the Roman Numeral. Fe 3+ Br - Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. The subscripts tell how many of each ion is needed to balance the compound. You’ll need three bromine ions to balance the one iron. Br - FeBr 3
36
Aluminum Sulfide Write the symbol and charge of each ion. Al 3+ S 2- Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. In this case the charges do not evenly divide into each other. You must find the least common multiple. SIX How many aluminums are needed to arrive at a +6 charge? How many sulfurs are needed to arrive at a -6 charge? 2 3 Al 3+ S 2- Al 2 S 3

6 Types Of Chemical Compounds Binary ionic - metal ion – nonmetal ion Binary molecular - two nonmetals Ternary ionic - at least one ion is a polyatomic ion Binary acid - H – nonmetal Ternary acid - H – Polyatomic ion Base- metal ion – OH
50
Naming Binary Molecular and Ternary Ionic Compounds: At the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to: 1. Name a binary molecular compound 2. Name a ternary ionic compound with a metal that has one and multiple oxidation numbers using the appropriate system 3. Write the formula of a binary molecular and ternary ionic compound if given the name
51
The Second Category of Compounds – Binary Molecular What are Binary Molecular Compounds? These compounds contain two elements (binary). The term “molecular” indicates that these elements are joined by a covalent bond. They must therefore be nonmetals. Bottom line – 2 elements – both nonmetals To name and write formulas for these, you must know some numerical prefixes.
52
Naming – You Must Use Prefixes. 1 = mono3 = tri 5 = penta 7 = hepta 9 = nona 2 = di4 = tetra 6 = hexa 8 = octa 10 = deca Steps 1.The first nonmetal only gets a numeric prefix when there is more than one. No prefix if there is only one. 2.The second element always gets a numeric prefix and always has a suffix of -ide
53
Naming Binary Molecular Compounds As with binary ionic compounds, the ending of the name of the second element in the compound is modified by adding the suffix –ide.
54
Familiar Saying Socially orientated individuals tend to congregate in gregariously homogenous groupings. Birds of a feather flock together!!
55
CO 2 Carbon dioxide CO Carbon monoxide N2O4N2O4 Dinitrogen tetroxide H2OH2O Dihydrogen monoxide CCl 4 Carbon tetrachloride Name the first element. Since there is only one, no prefix is needed. The second element always gets a prefix and a suffix of –ide. Name the first element. Since there are two present, the prefix “di” is needed. The second element always gets a prefix and a suffix of –ide.
56
AlCl 3 What do you think about this one??? Be careful. This is a metal and nonmetal. Always keep your Periodic Table in front of you for reference. You may have been tempted to say “aluminum trichloride”. This is INCORRECT! This is a binary IONIC compound. No prefixes are used. Simply name it aluminum chloride.
57
Given The Names Of Binary Molecular Compounds, How Do You Write The Formulas? Very easily done!!! The prefixes tell you how to write the formulas. DO NOT CONSIDER CHARGES. NONMETALS ARE ALL NEGATIVE SO TO USE CHARGES DOES NOT WORK!
58
Silicon dioxide Diphosphorous pentachloride Silicon and oxygen are both nonmetals. The lack of a prefix on silicon means that there is only ONE silicon. The prefix “di” in front of oxide means that there are TWO oxygens. SiO 2 Phosphorous and chloride are both nonmetals. The prefix “di” means that there are TWO phosphorouses (Is that a word?) The prefix “penta” before chlorine means that there are five chlorines. P 2 Cl 5
59
NO Nitrogen monoxide Nitrogen and oxygen are both nonmetals. The lack of a prefix on nitrogen means only ONE nitrogen. The prefix “mono” on oxygen indicates ONE oxygen. Is this not sooooooo easy!??

Third Category Of Compounds – Ternary Ionic Compounds. These Compounds Contain At Least One Polyatomic Ion. What is a polyatomic ion? Let’s look at the name to try to understand. ionIt is an ion – that means it has a charge. polyatomicIt is polyatomic – that means it is made of more than one atom. Let’s look at some examples of polyatomic ions.
63
CO 3 2- carbonate This ion is composed of one carbon and three oxygens and the entire group has a charge of -2. Polyatomic ion – Group of atoms that act as a unit and carry a charge. You have been given a list of other polyatomic ions You need to learn these!!!
64
How Do You Recognize Ternary Ionic Compounds? Composed of two ions in which at least one is a polyatomic ion. There is only one positive polyatomic ion (NH 4 +1 ) Three possible types of Ternary Ionic Compounds: Ammonium + negative ion (nonmetal) Metal (positive ion) + negative polyatomic ion Ammonium + negative polyatomic ion Polyatomic Ion
65
Naming Compounds with Polyatomic Ions as Cations NH 4 Cl is ammonium (the name of the ion from chart) + chlor (root name of the second element) + ide suffix = ammonium chloride.
66
Naming Compounds with Polyatomic Ions as Anions 1.Name the first ion. 2.Name the second ion. Isn’t that simple??!! Examples: Na 2 CO 3 Carbonate When you look at this compound you should recognize that this is NOT binary. There are THREE elements present. When you see this, immediately look for a polyatomic ion. Carbonate is present here. Name the first ion. Sodium Name the second ion. carbonate Notice that you do NOT change the suffix – just name the polyatomic ion
67
Fe(OH) 3 Name the first ion. Iron Remember that iron requires a Roman Numeral since it is a transition element. What Roman Numeral should be used? The Roman Numeral comes from the charge of the ion. How do you find the charge of the iron? You know two things: All compounds are neutral. You know the charge of OH (-1) Since there are 3 OH groups, each with a -1 charge, the charge of the iron must be +3 for the compound to be neutral (III) Name the polyatomic ion. hydroxide
68
NH 4 Cl Name the first ion. Ammonium Name the second ion. chloride Notice that since the second ion is a nonmetal that, like binary ionic compounds, the suffix of the nonmetal changes to –ide. Looks like a monster, but it’s really a pussycat.
69
( NH 4 ) 3 PO 4 Name the first ion. Name the second ion. Ammonium phosphate Naming Compounds with Polyatomic Ions as Cations and Anions
70
Cu 2 SO 4 Name the first ion. Copper You should realize that you need a Roman Numeral since copper is a transition metal. The Roman Numeral is the same as the charge. What is the charge? The charge of sulfate is -2. Since there are two coppers, the charge of the copper must be +1. (I)sulfate Name the second ion.
71
Euphemisms in Science We all know that some politicians and government spokesmen use certain euphemistic phrases to give an aura of respectability to descriptions of events or actions which would be offensive when expressed in plain English. The following is a list of Euphemisms in Science and their translations into plain English. “It has long been known...” I haven't bothered to look up any references!
72
How Do You Write Formulas For Ternary Ionic Compounds? Very Much Like Writing Formulas For Binary Ionic Compounds. Three Steps: 1.Write the formulas/symbols of each ion. 2.Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. 3.If a subscript is needed for a polyatomic ion, it must be put in parentheses with the subscript on the outside. Let’s do some!!
73
Aluminum nitrateFirst, you can tell from the name that there is a polyatomic ion present (nitrate). All binary ionic compounds have suffixes of –ide. Write the formula/symbol and charge of each ion. Al 3+ NO 3 - Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. Since Al is +3 and NO 3 is -1, you need a total of 3NO 3 - to balance one Al 3+ Since you will need a subscript of 3 for NO 3 -, you need to put this in parentheses with the 3 outside. Al(NO 3 ) 3
74
Lead (IV) acetate Write the formula/symbol and charge of each ion. Pb 4+ C 2 H 3 O 2 - Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. Since Pb is +4 and C 2 H 3 O 2 is - 1, you will need 4 C 2 H 3 O 2 -1 to balance 1Pb +4 Pb(C 2 H 3 O 2 ) 4 Calcium phosphate Write the formula/symbol and charge of each ion. Balance the charges by supplying subscripts. Since Ca is +2 and PO 4 is -3, you will need 3 Ca+2 to balance 2 PO 4 -3 Ca 2+ PO 4 3- Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2
