Review: compounds ionic or molecular compounds chemical formulas for of ionic compounds Nov 39:58 AM Naming Simple Ionic Compounds: the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is a group that is responsible for the rules for naming compounds the rules for ionic compounds are as follows: Step 1: Name the metal ion Ex. MgBr2 : the metal ion is magnesium Step 2: Name the nonmetal by ending it in suffix "ide" Ex. MgBr2: the nonmetal is bromine, changing the ending to ide creates bromide Step 3: Combine the two to write the name of the compound: Magnesium bromide Nov 39:59 AM 1 remember an ionic compound can be identified with its chemical formula or with its name Example 2: Li3N Metal ion is Lithium Nonmetal is Nitrogen Replace ending with ide, nitride Ionic compound is called lithium nitride Nov 310:15 AM Practice Na2O: Mg3P2: AgI: CaSe: K2S: Nov 310:18 AM 2 Common Ionic Compounds Name Formula sodium chloride (table salt) calcium carbonate sodium sulfide sodium hydroxide NaCl CaCO3 Na2SO4 NaOH * you will be expected to know these Nov 310:22 AM Naming Simple Molecular Compounds the main difference between this and naming ionic compounds is that prefixes are used to indicate the number of each type of atom Number of Atoms 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Prefix mono (only 2nd atom) di tri tetra penta hexa hepta octa nona deca Nov 310:26 AM 3 Step 1: Name the first atom Ex. SiCl4: first atom is silicon Step 2: Name the second atom by ending the element name with "ide" the second atom is chlorine which becomes chloride Step 3: Add prefixes to indicate the number of atoms no prefix is needed on the first atom thus no name change there are 4 of the second atom thus tetra is added: tetrachloride Step 4: Write the compound name: silicon tetrachloride Nov 310:32 AM Write the names for the following: SO3 CCl4 N 2O 3 P2O5 Nov 310:39 AM 4 Common Molecular Compounds: C3H8: propone C4H10: butane C6H12O6: glucose C12H22O11: sucrose (sugar) Nov 310:41 AM Readings: Pages 80 85 Questions: Page 85, #'s 1,2,3,5,7 Matching Game Nov 312:40 PM 5
