Objectives PSc.2.2.3 Predict chemical formulas and names for simple compounds based on knowledge of bond formation and naming conventions.
Naming Compounds and Writing Formulas
Systematic Naming • There are too many compounds to remember the names of them all. • A compound is made of two or more elements. • The name should tell us how many and what type of atoms.
Types of Compounds • There are two types of compounds: ionic compounds and molecular (covalent) compounds.
Ionic Compounds • The simplest ratio of the ions represented in an ionic compound is called a formula unit. • The overall charge of any formula unit is zero. • In order to write a correct formula unit, one must know the charge of each ion.
Charges on Ions:Oxidation Numbers 1+ 2+ 3+ 3- 2- 1-
Naming Cations • We will use the systematic way. • For cations, if the charge is always the same (Group A) just write the name of the metal.
Naming Cations • Tin and lead can have more than one type of charge. • Indicate the charge with Roman numerals in parenthesis.
Example • Li1+ • Li is the symbol for lithium. • Lithium is a Group 1A metal, so the charge is always the same. Write the name of the metal. • Li1+ is called the Lithium ion.
Example • Sr2+ • Sr is the symbol for strontium. • Strontium is a Group 2A metal, so the charge is always the same. Write the name of the metal. • Sr2+ is called the Strontium ion.
Example • Sn2+ • Sn is the symbol for tin. • Tin has multiple oxidation numbers. Write the name of the metal, indicating the charge with Roman numerals in parenthesis. • Sn2+ is called the Tin (II) ion.
Example • Pb4+ • Pb is the symbol for lead. • Lead is a Group 4A metal, and the charge is not always the same. Write the name of the metal, indicating the charge with Roman numerals in parenthesis. • Pb4+ is called the Lead (IV) ion.
Problem • Name the following cations. • Ca2+ Calcium ion Aluminum ion • Al3+ Tin (IV) ion • Sn4+
Naming Anions • Naming monatomic anions is always the same. • Change the element ending to – ide • Example: F1- • F is the symbol for fluorine, F1- is fluor ide. ine.
Example • Cl1- • Cl is the symbol for chlorine. • Chlorine is a Group 7A nonmetal, so the charge is always the same (1-). • Cl1- is called the chloride ion.
Example • O2- • O is the symbol for oxygen. • Oxygen is a Group 6A nonmetal, so the charge is always the same (2-). • O2- is called the oxide ion.
Problem • Name the following anions. • S2- sulfide ion • Br1- bromide ion • N3- nitride ion
Problem • Name the following anions. • As3- arsenide ion • Te2- telluride ion
Binary Ionic Compounds • Binaryionic compounds are composed of a metal bonded with a nonmetal. • Name the metal ion using a Roman numeral in parenthesis if necessary. • Follow this name with the name of the nonmetal ion.
Example • Name the following binary ionic compounds. Sodium chloride • NaCl • Ca3P2 Calcium phosphide
Example • Name the following binary ionic compounds. • PbO Lead (II) oxide • SnBr2 Tin (II) bromide
Problem • Name the following binary ionic compounds. • PbO2 Lead (IV) oxide • AlF3 Aluminum fluoride
Problem • Name the following binary ionic compounds. • KCl Potassium chloride • Na3N Sodium nitride
Writing the Formulas for Cations • Write the formula for the metal. • If a Roman numeral is in parenthesis use that number for the charge. Indicate the charge with a superscript.
Writing the Formulas for Cations • If no Roman numeral is given, find the Group A metal on the periodic table and determine the charge from the column number.
Example • Lead (II) ion • Pb is the symbol for lead. • Lead has multiple charges, which is the reason why the charge with Roman numerals in parenthesis was included. • The formula for the lead (II) ion is Pb2+.
Example • Gallium ion • Ga is the symbol for gallium. • Gallium is a Group 3A metal and its charge is always the same (3+). • The formula for the gallium ion is Ga3+.
Problem • Write the formulas for the following cations. Mg2+ • Magnesium ion Cu2+ • Copper (II) ion • Potassium ion K1+
Problem • Write the formulas for the following ions. Al3+ • Aluminum ion Cr6+ • Chromium (VI) ion Hg2+ • Mercury (II) ion
Writing the Formulas for Anions • Write the formula for the nonmetal. • Find the Group A nonmetal on the periodic table and determine the charge from the column number.
Problem • Write the formulas for the following anions. I1- • iodide ion P3- • phosphide ion
Problem • Write the formulas for the following anions. • selenide ion Se2- • carbide ion C4-
Ionic Compounds • Oxidation numbers can be used to determine the chemical formulas for ionic compounds. • If the oxidation number of each ion is multiplied by the number of that ion present in a formula unit, and then the results are added, the sum must be zero.
Ionic Compounds • In the formula for an ionic compound, the symbol of the cation is written before that of the anion. • Subscripts, or small numbers written to the lower right of the chemical symbols, show the numbers of ions of each type present in a formula unit.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Write the symbol for the metal. Determine the oxidation number from either the column number or the Roman numeral and write it as a superscript to the right of the metal’s symbol.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • To the right of the metal’s symbol, write the symbol for the nonmetal. Determine the oxidation number from the column number and write it as a superscript to the right of the nonmetal’s symbol.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Example: potassium fluoride 1+ 1- K F
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • If the two oxidation numbers add together to get zero, the formula is a one-to-one ratio of the elements.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Example: potassium fluoride 1+ 1- K KF F
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Example: aluminum sulfide 3+ 2- Al S
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • If the two oxidation numbers DO NOT add together to get zero, you will need to “criss-cross” the superscripts. These numbers now become subscripts.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Example: aluminum sulfide 3+ 2- Al S 2- 3+
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Omit all positive and negative signs and omit all 1’s.
Writing Formulas for Binary Ionic Compounds • Example: aluminum sulfide Al Al2S3 S 2 3
Problem • Lithium selenide • Write the formulas for the following binary ionic compounds. Li2Se • Tin (II) oxide SnO
Problem • Tin (IV) oxide • Write the formulas for the following binary ionic compounds. SnO2 • Magnesium fluoride MgF2
Ternary Ionic Compounds • Ternaryionic compounds are composed of at least 3 elements. • Name the metal ion, using a Roman numeral in parenthesis if necessary. • Follow this name with the name of the polyatomic ion.
Polyatomic ions • Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms that stay together and have a charge. • Examples include: • Nitrate NO3-1 • Acetate C2H3O2-1 • Hydroxide OH-1 • Ammonium NH4+1 • Carbonate CO3-2 • Sulfate SO4-2 • Phosphate PO4-3
Ternary Ionic Compounds • There is one polyatomic ion with a positive oxidation number (NH4+) that may come first in a compound. Name the ion. • Follow this name with the name of the anion or second polyatomic ion.
Examples • Name the following ternary ionic compounds. • Li2CO3 Lithium carbonate • Al(OH)3 Aluminum hydroxide
