COMPOUNDS • chemical combination of two or more different elements • two types: • IONIC • MOLECULAR
CHEMICAL FORMULA • shows the number and kinds of atoms in the smallest representative unit • for an ionic compound, it’s called the formula unit – lowest whole number ratio of ions
IONIC COMPOUNDS • composed of cations (+) & anions (–) • cation gives electrons • anion accepts electrons • composed of metal + nonmetal • electrically neutral • usually solid at room temp.
BINARY IONIC COMPOUNDS • binary – composed of 2 elements • (+) must balance (–) • net charge = 0
NAMING IONIC COMPOUNDS • metal (cation) comes first • nonmetal – ending changes to ‘-ide’ Li2S lithium sulfide AlF3 aluminum fluoride Mg3N2 magnesium nitride
WRITING FORMULAS FOR BINARY IONIC COMPOUNDS • potassium chloride • K+and Cl– • charge ratio 1:1 • KCl
WRITING FORMULAS FOR BINARY IONIC COMPOUNDS • calcium bromide • Ca+2and Br1– • charge ratio 2:1 • CaBr2
WRITING FORMULAS FOR BINARY IONIC COMPOUNDS Use criss-cross method • charge on one ion becomes the subscript on the other • REDUCE to lowest whole number ratio
