1 Naming Non-ionic Compounds Rules to Live By

2 Rule #1 The first element in the formula is named first, and the full element name is used.

3 Rule #2 The second element is named as it would be if it was an anion. –Ex. Cl would be “chloride” like before.

4 Rule #3 Prefixes are used to tell the number of atoms in the formula. –We will look at these in 2 more slides.

5 Rule #4 The prefix mono- (meaning 1) is never used for the first element. –Ex. CO 2 is carbon dioxide, not monocarbon dioxide. Ever.

6 Prefixes 1mono- 2di- 3tri- 4tetra- 5penta- 6hexa- 7hepta- 8octa-

7 Yay Practice! Name the following compounds: 1.PCl 5 2.P 4 O 6 3.SF 6 4.SO 3 5.SO 2 6.N 2 O 3 Phosphorus pentachloride Tetraphosphorus hexoxide Sulfur hexafluoride Sulfur trioxide Sulfur dioxide Dinitrogen trioxide

8 Now go the other way! Give the formula for the following compounds! 1.Carbon pentasulfide 2.Diphosphorus hexachloride 3.Hexanitrogen monofluoride 4.Tetroxygen trichloride 5.Phosphorus pentachloride CS 5 P 2 Cl 6 N6FN6F O 4 Cl 3 PCl 5

9 Let’s Do Acid! In the learn-how-to-name-them sense…

10 Naming Acids 1.If the anion does not contain oxygen, the acid is named with the prefix hydro- and the suffix -ic. AcidAnionName. HClCl - HCNCN - H 2 SS -2 hydrochloric acid hydrocyanic acid hydrosulfuric acid

11 Naming Acids 2.When the anion contains oxygen, we add either –ic or –ous to the end. -ic we use when we have an anion whose name ends in –ate: AcidAnionName. H 2 SO 4 sulfate H 3 PO 4 phosphate HC 2 H 3 O 2 acetate sulfuric acid phosphoric acid acetic acid

12 Naming Acids -ous we use when we have an anion whose name ends in –ite. AcidAnionName. H 2 SO 3 sulfite HNO 2 nitrite sulfurous acid nitrous acid

13 Acid (starts with H and is not water) The anion (-) name ends in… -ide Single element from the periodic table: Br, Cl, I, S… “Hydro_______ic Acid” -ite Only polyatomic ions “_____ous Acid” -ate Only polyatomic ions “_____ic Acid” (root)

14 Practice! Name the following acids. Acid Anion Name. 1.HF 2.H 3 PO 3 3.HNO 3 4.H 2 S hydrofluoric acidF - (fluoride) PO 3 -3 (phosphite) phosphorous acid NO 3 - (nitrate) nitric acid S -2 (sulfide) hydrosulfuric acid

15 The End Now let’s do some more practice.
