Section 2.3—Chemical Formulas We need to be able to read the formulas for chemicals in the antacids!
Reminders from Section 2.2 • Your Appendix (Page A-2) has lists of: • Common polyatomic ions • Multivalent metals • Covalent prefixes • Use your periodic table to determine the charges of common elements when they form ions
Ionic Compound Definitions Ionic bond- bond formed by attraction between + and - ions Binary Ionic Compound- compound containing two elements—one metal and one non-metal + Cation - Anion
Metals & Non-Metals Ionic Bonds are between metals & non-metals
Identifying & Naming Binary Ionic • These compounds: • End in “-ide” (except “hydroxide and cyanide”) • Do NOT contain covalent prefixes • To write these formulas: • Write the symbol & charge of the first element (the metal, cation) • Write the symbol & charge of the second element (the non-metal, anion) • Add more of the cations and/or anions to have a neutral compound • Use subscripts to show how many of each type of ion is there.
Example #1 Sodium chloride
Example #1 Na+1 Cation Sodium chloride Anion Cl-1 NaCl
Example #1 Na+1 Cation Na+1Cl-1 Sodium chloride +1 + -1 = 0 Anion The compound is neutral…no subscripts are needed. Cl-1 NaCl
Example #2 Calcium bromide
Example #2 Ca+2 Cation Calcium bromide Anion Br-1
Example #2 Ca+2 Cation Ca+2Br-1 Calcium bromide +2 + -1 = +1 Anion Ca+2Br-1Br-1 Br-1 +2 + -1 + -1 = 0 CaBr2 The subscript “2” is used to show that 2 anions are needed.

Polyatomic Ionic Compound - Polyatomic Anion Definition Polyatomic Ion- more than one atom that together have a charge Polyatomic Ionic Compound- compound containing at least one polyatomic ion + Cation
Identifying & Naming Polyatomic Ionic • These compounds: • Do not end with “-ide” (except hydroxide & cyanide) • Do not use covalent prefixes • To write these formulas: • Write the symbol & charge of the cation & anion • Add additional cations or anions to have a neutral compound • Use subscripts to show the number of ions • When using subscripts with a polyatomic ion, you must put the polyatomic ion in parenthesis.
Example #3 Sodium carbonate
Example #3 Na+1 Cation Sodium carbonate Polyatomic Anion CO3-2
Example #3 Na+1 Cation Na+CO32- Sodium carbonate +1 + -2 = -1 Polyatomic Anion Na+Na+CO32- +1 + 1 + -2 = 0 CO3-2 Na2CO3 The subscript “2” is used to show that 2 cations are needed.
Example #4 Magnesium nitrate
Example #4 Mg+2 Cation Magnesium nitrate Polyatomic Anion NO3-1
Example #4 Mg+2 Mg+2NO3- Cation +2 + -1 = 1 Magnesium nitrate Mg+2NO3- NO3- Polyatomic Anion +2 + -1 + -1 = 0 NO3-1 The subscript “2” is used to show that 2 anions are needed. Mg(NO3)2 Use parenthesis when adding subscripts to polyatomic ions
Let’s Practice Sodium nitrate Calcium chlorate Potassium sulfite Calcium hydroxide Example: Write the following chemical formulas
Let’s Practice Sodium nitrate Calcium chlorate Potassium sulfite Calcium hydroxide NaNO3 Ca(ClO3)2 K2SO3 Ca(OH)2 Example: Write the following chemical formulas
Definition Multivalent Metal- metal that has more than one possibility for cationic charge
Identifying & Naming Multivalent Metals • These compounds: • Will have roman numerals • To write these formulas: • Same as binary ionic or polyatomic ionic. • The roman numerals tell the charge of the metal (cation)
Example #5 Iron (III) oxide
Example #5 Fe+3 Cation Iron (III) oxide Anion O-2
Example #5 Fe+3 Fe+3O2- Cation +3 + -2 = -1 Iron (III) oxide Fe+3Fe+3O2-O2- Anion +3 + 3 + -2 + -2 + -2 = 0 O-2 The subscript “2” and “3” are used to show the numbers of atoms needed. Fe2O3
Example #6 Copper (II) nitrate
Example #6 Cu+2 Cation Copper (II) nitrate Polyatomic Anion NO3-1
Example #6 Cu+2 Cu+2NO3- Cation +2 + -1 = 1 Copper (II) nitrate Cu+2NO3-NO3- Polyatomic Anion +2 + -1 + -1 = 0 NO3-1 Use parenthesis when adding subscripts to a polyatomic ion Cu(NO3)2
Let’s Practice Iron (II) nitrate Copper (I) chloride Lead (IV) hydroxide Tin (II) oxide Example: Write the following chemical formulas
Let’s Practice Iron (II) nitrate Copper (I) chloride Lead (IV) hydroxide Tin (II) oxide Fe(NO3)2 CuCl Pb(OH)4 SnO Example: Write the following chemical formulas
Covalent compound Definition Covalent bond atoms share electrons Binary Covalent Compound compound made from two non-metals that share electrons Non metal Non metal
Identifying & Naming Binary Covalent • These compounds: • Use covalent prefixes • To write these formulas: • Write the symbols of the first and second element • Use the covalent prefixes (assume the first element is “1” if there’s no prefix) as the subscripts to show number of atoms. Atoms do not form charges when bonding covalently…you DO NOT need to worry about charges with this type!
Example #7 Dinitrogen Tetraoxide
Example #7 “Di-” = 2 N Dinitrogen Tetraoxide O “Tetra-” = 4 N2O4
Example #8 Silicon dioxide
Example #8 “Mono-” is not written for the first element Si Silicon dioxide O “Di-” = 2 SiO2
CAUTION!!! “di” and “bi” do not mean the same thing! di- bi- Stands for “2” in covalent compounds Means there’s a hydrogen in the polyatomic anion Carbon dioxide = CO2 Sodium biphosphate = Na2HPO4
