ChemCatalyst • How would you make an aluminum ion from an aluminum atom? What type of ion is this? • How would you make an oxide ion from an oxygen atom? What type of ion is this?
ChemCatalyst • How would you make an aluminum ion from an aluminum atom? What type of ion is this? • Al+3 so remove 3 electrons • Cation • How would you make an oxide ion from an oxygen atom? What type of ion is this? • O-2 so add 2 electrons • Anion
Ions • Atoms are neutral • Equal number of protons and electrons • Atoms can become chargedby gaining or losing an electron • Called ions • Ions are indicated with a (+) or (-) sign • Cations are positive • Anions are negative
Why Gain or Lose? • Noble gases are unreactive • Most stable elements • Atoms of elements gain or loseelectrons to become more like noble gases
Two Types of Cations and Anions • Monatomic Ions • Ions containing one type of atom • Ca2+ O2- • Polyatomic Ions • Ions containing two or more types of atoms • NH41+ NO31-
Metals (left side of table) • Form cations • Lose electrons to get to the noble gases • Only works if the charge is +3 or less
Cation Formation Na+ Na e-
Naming Metal Cations • Metal name + “ion” • For transition metals use systematic name • Metal name followed by charge written as a Roman numeral in paranthesis + “ion”
Naming Metal Cations • Example • Write the systematic name for Fe+2 and Fe+3. • Fe+2 • Iron(II) ion • Fe+3 • Iron(III) ion
Nonmetals (right side of table) • Form anions • Gain electrons to get to the noble gases • Only works if the charge is -3 or less
Anion Formation Cl- Cl e-
Naming Nonmetal Anions • Nonmetal root ending in “ide” + “ion” • Example • What is the name of the hydrogen anion? • Hydride ion • What is the name of the nitrogen anion? • Nitride ion
Making Salt • What is the formula for table salt? • What does Na need to do to become like a noble gas? • Lose an electron • What does Cl need to do to become like a noble gas? • Gain an electron
But Why?! • Ions form so each atom can become like a noble gas • When the cation and anion form, we get two charged ions • Opposite charges attract • Electrostatic force • Ionic bond = Ionic compound • Metal + nonmetal • Left side + right side
Trends in the Table • Alkali Metals • Form +1 ions • Alkaline Earth Metals • Form +2 ions • Transition Metals • Can have multiple charges • Halogens • Form -1 ions • Noble Gases • Do not form ions
Chemical Formulas • Set of symbols that represent a compound • Contains two or more elements chemically combined • How does a chemical formula differ from a chemical symbol? • Formula is for a substance containing several elements • Symbol is for a single element
Symbols vs. Formulas • What do Na and O represent? • The chemical symbols for sodium and oxygen • What does Na2Orepresent? • The chemical formula for sodium oxide • What does the 2 stand for? • 2 sodium ions • Why do we put subscripts? • To count atoms/balance charges
Naming Formulas • Ionic compounds • What is the name of AlBr3? • No transition metal • Step 1: Writethe cationname • Cation is Al+3 = aluminum ion • Step 2: Write the anion name with the ending –ide • Anion is Br- = bromide • Aluminum bromide
Naming Formulas • Ionic compounds • What is the name of NiS? • Nickel is a transition metal • Step 1: Write the cation name • Cation is Ni+2 • Step 2: Write the charge/ roman numeralof the cation in parenthesis • Nickel(II) • Step 3: Write the anion name with the ending –ide • Anion is S-2 = Sulfide • Nickel(II) sulfide
Writing Formulas from names • What is the formula for potassium nitride? • K = alkali metal = not a transition metal • Cation is K+ • Anion is N-3 • K3N • What is the formula of chromium (III) chloride? • Roman numerals = transition metal, so charge is +3 • CationisCr+3 • AnionisCl- • CrCl3
Naming Molecular Formulas • Molecular compounds • 2 nonmetals (right side + right side) • Uses prefixes • Do not write mono for first nonmetal • Second nonmetal has -ide ending
Examples • What is the name of PCl3? • 1 P = phosphorus • 3 Cl = trichloride • Phosphorus trichloride • What is the formula for dihydrogen monoxide? • Di = 2 H • Mon = 1 O • H2O
