Understand how ionic and covalent compounds are formed, naming conventions, and formula writing explained with examples and practIce.
E N D
Ionic Compound Formation • Ionic compounds are made up of positive and negative ions. • All of the positive and negative ions organize in a pattern. • Negative-positive attract. • Negative-negative and positive-positive repel. • Ionic compounds form from the inside out as solid crystals. • Ionic compounds are like a solid stack of bricks. • A salt shaker contains thousands of small pieces of NaCl.
Covalent Compound Formation • Covalent molecules share electrons. • There is generally no order to the formation of covalent molecules. • These molecules clump together as solids, liquids or gases. • Covalent molecules are like a play-pit full of plastic balls. • Each plastic ball = 1 covalent molecule of H2O
Names & Formulas of Ionic Compounds Remember: Ionic compounds are composed of ions (1 positive and 1 negative) To Name an Ionic Compound: • Name the cation: - it’s the same as on the periodic table • Name the anion -drop the end of the element name and add “ide”
Examples: • NaCl • KBr • CaF2 4. MgO
Ionic Compound Formulas • Symbols represent the elements in the compound • Subscript numbers following the symbol show how many of each element are present. Example: Sr3P2 - Contains 3 atoms Sr (strontium) and 2 atoms P (phosphorus)
Writing Ionic Compound Formulas • The ion charge shows what ion each element forms to complete their valence shell of electrons • Al has an ion charge of +3, therefore it loses 3 electrons • Br has an ion charge of -1, therefore it gains one electron • For Al and Br to form a compound Al needs to give away 3 electrons and Br needs to accept them. • But wait!!! Br only needs to accept one, so how does this work??
Writing Ionic Compound Formulas • Each Br can accept only 1 electron, so 3 Br atoms are needed to combine with 1 Al • The overall formula needs to show this AlBr3
Writing Ionic Compound Formulas • What would the Ionic Formula be for a compound made of Aluminum and Sulphur? • Al has an ion charge of +3 • S has an ion charge of -2
For all elements to end up with full valence shells, 2 atoms of Al and 3 of S are required. • Formula = Al2S3
Shortcut to write the formula: • Write the symbol and ion charge of the cation • Write the symbol and ion charge of the anion • “Swap and drop” the charges and write as subscripts • Reduce numbers (if possible)
Examples: Aluminum sulphide Al+3 S-2 Al S Al2S3
Examples: Magnesium Oxide Mg+2 O-2 Mg O Mg2O2 REDUCE!! MgO

Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal • Multivalent metals have more than one possible ion charge. • The name must indicate which ion charge is used in the formation of the compound • We use roman numerals to indicate ion charge: I = 1 VI = 6 II = 2 VII = 7 III = 3 VIII = 8 IV = 4 IX = 9 V = 5 X = 10
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Examples: V4+ = Vanadium (IV) Ni3+ = Nickel (III) • Writing formulas is identical to other ionic compounds, simply use the roman numeral to determine the ion charge of the cation!
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Example: • Copper (I) nitride
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Example: • Manganese (IV) oxide
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Example: • Chromium (III) bromide
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal • Naming these types of compounds requires an extra step • I will show you two different methods, the first requires that you must UNCRISSCROSS!!
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Example: Name PdS2 1. Look up the metal on the periodic table and confirm that it is multivalent. 2. Uncrisscross so that the subscripts become charges once again Pd1S2 Pd2+ S1-
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal • Check the ion charge of the non-metal to make sure it’s correct. If not, multiply both charges to make it correct. Pd2+ S1- - wait!! Sulfur should have an ion charge of -2!! -to fix this, multiply both ion charges by 2 Pd4+ S2-
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal • Name the metal, using roman numerals to indicate its ion charge Palladium (IV) • Name the non-metal, swapping ending for –ide. Palladium (IV) Sulphide
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal The second method uses a “teeter-totter” to figure out the charge of the multivalent metal Example: Name PdS2
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Practice! Name this compound: SnBr2
Compounds Containing a Multivalent Metal Practice! Name this compound: VCl5

Polyatomic Ions • Some special molecules lose or gain electrons as a group • These ionic molecules are called polyatomic ions
Polyatomic Ions • You can recognize that a compound has a polyatomic ion in it because it will be made up of MORE THAN 2 TYPES OF ATOMS! • The name is still made up of ONLY 2 PARTS! Naming: Example: NaNO3 • Name the cation Sodium 2. Name the polyatomic ion Nitrate Sodium Nitrate
Practice: • Name the following compound K2Cr2O7
Practice: • Name the following compound Fe(OH)3
Writing Formulas • Write the symbol and ion charge for both parts of the name • Criss Cross the charges - put brackets around the polyatomic ion if necessary 3. Reduce if possible Example: Calcium Bicarbonate Ca2+ HCO3- Ca HCO3 Ca(HCO3)2
Practice: • Write the formula for the following compound Ammonium chloride
Practice: • Write the formula for the following compound Manganese (III) chlorate

Binary Covalent Molecules • These are molecules made up of 2 types of non-metals. • The systems for naming and writing formulas for these compounds is very different than the ionic compounds we’ve looked at so far
Binary Covalent Molecules • The names of these compounds tell you exactly how many of each atom are present. • There is no need to look up charges or crisscross!! The Prefixes:
Binary Covalent Molecules Naming Molecules: • Name the left element • Add a prefix in front of the element symbol indicating how many atoms of that element are present (unless there is only one, then don’t use a prefix) • Name the second element • Add a prefix in front of the element symbol indicating how many atoms of the 2nd element are present (use mono as the prefix if there is only one)
Examples: CO N2O3
Binary Covalent Molecules Writing Formulas: • Look at prefix and name of first element. Write the element symbol followed by a subscript number showing how many of that element are present. • Look at prefix and name of second element. Write the element symbol followed by a subscript number showing how many of that element are present. • DO NOT REDUCE!!!!!!!
Binary Covalent Molecules Examples: Nitrogen tribromide
Binary Covalent Molecules Examples: Disulfur decafluoride
