IONIC COMPOUNDS
Naming and Formula Writing
OBJECTIVES:
Apply the rules for
naming and writing formulas
for binary ionic compounds.
Apply the rules for
naming and writing formulas
for compounds containing polyatomic ions.
Predicting Charges on Monatomic Ions KNOW THESE !!!!
+1 +2 -3 -2 -1 0 Cd +2
Naming Positive Ions
Before you name an Ion you have to know the charge.
Group 1 = always +1 Group 2 = always +2 Aluminum = always +3 Zinc and Cadmium = always +2 Silver = always +1
The Other Metals
All other metals can have various positive charges from +1 to +7 Roman Numerals are used to tell the charge
Monatomic Ions
Naming Postive Ions
With group 1, 2, Al, Zn, Cd, and Ag you just give the name of the atom Na + is Sodium Mg +2 is Magnesium Ag Al + +3 is Silver is Aluminum
All the other metals
With all other metals you give the name Metal followed by a
roman numeral
Cu + - Copper (I) Cu +2 – Copper (II) Fe +2 – Iron (II) Fe +3 – Iron (III) U +6 – Uranium (VI)
Naming negative ions
All negative ions have their endings changed to –ide Oxygen becomes oxide Fluorine becomes Fluoride Nitrogen becomes Nitride Chlorine becomes Chloride
Names of other Negative Ions
Carbide = what you want your parents to do for you Boride = what happened at the rodeo Silicide = what you are seeing right now Fluoride = a state in the union Iodide = Very sad, I guess we will have to Barium.
Telleride = Telling the driver where you want to go
Formulas of Ionic Compounds Formulas of ionic compounds are determined from the charges on the ions Na
atoms +
F :
ions
– Na + : F :
NaF sodium + fluorine sodium fluoride formula Charge balance: 1+ 1 = 0
Writing a Formula Write the formula for the ionic compound that will form between Ba 2+ and Cl
.
To cancel out Ba’s +2, then two -1 Cl’s are needed.
Solution: 1. Balance charge with + and – ions 2. Write the positive ion of metal first, and the negative ion Ba 2+ Cl
Cl
3. Write the number of ions needed as subscripts BaCl 2
Balancing a formula by math
Every ionic compound should have a formula that has a charge that equals zero.
Barium Fluoride Ba +2 Two F How many F’s are needed to balance Ba +2 Formula is BaF 2 ?
Another way – Drop, Swap, Reduce
Aluminum Oxide Al is always +3 Oxide is always -2 Al +3 , O -2 DROP: Al 3 O 2 SWAP: Al 2 O 3 REDUCE: 2 and 3 are lowest integers, so leave alone
Another example
Magnesium Oxide Mg is +2 Oxide is -2 Mg +2 , O -2 DROP: Mg 2 O 2 SWAP: Mg 2 O 2 REDUCE: MgO, 2 and 2 divide each other out.
Barium phosphide Barium will form Ba 2+ Phosphorus will form P 3 Formula is
Ba 3 P 2
Sodium sulfide Sodium will form Na + Sulfur will form S 2 Formula is
Na 2 S
Calcium chloride Calcium will form Ca 2+ Chlorine will form Cl 1 Formula is
CaCl 2

Naming Compounds Binary Ionic Compounds:
1. Cation first, then anion
2. Monatomic cation = name of the element
Ca 2+ = calcium ion
3. Monatomic anion = root
Cl
= chlor ide
CaCl 2 = + calcium chlor -ide ide

Transition Metals Elements that can have more than one possible charge MUST have a Roman Numeral to indicate the charge on the individual ion.
1+ or 2+ 2+ or 3+ Cu + , Cu 2+ Fe 2+ , Fe 3+ copper(I) ion iron(II) ion copper (II) ion iron(III) ion
Names of Variable Ions These elements REQUIRE Roman Numerals because they can have more than one possible charge: anything except Group 1A, 2A, Ag, Zn, Cd, and Al (You should already know the charges on these!) Or another way to say it is: Transition metals and the metals in groups 4A and 5A (except Ag, Zn, Cd, and Al) require a Roman Numeral.
FeCl CuCl SnF 4 PbCl 2 Fe 2 S 3 3 (Fe 3+ ) iron (III) chloride (Cu + ) copper (I) chloride (Sn 4+ ) tin (IV) fluoride (Pb 2+ ) lead (II) chloride (Fe 3+ ) iron (III) sulfide

Polyatomic Ions
Some ions are composed of more then one atom.
These are called polyatomic ions Poly = more
Formulas and names
Nitrate = NO 3 Sulfate = SO 4 -2 Silver nitrate Ag + NO 3 DSR = AgNO 3 Copper (I) Sulfate Cu + SO 4 -2 Cu 2 SO 4

More on Polyatomics
Most polyatomic ions end in –
ate
. The ending –
ite
means one less oxygen is present then in the ending –
ate
.
Example: Nitr
ate
NO 3 versus Nitr changed, not the charge.
NO
ite
2 : NOTICE: Only the number of O’s
Even More
The Prefix
Hypo
means two less oxygen’s are present then in –
ate
.
Example:
Hypo
sulfite: SO 2 -2 The Prefix
Per
- means one extra oxygen is present then in –
ate
.
Examples:
Per
chlorate Chlorate Chlor
ite
HypoChlorite
ClO 4 ClO 3 ClO 2 ClO -
What if Hydrogen is in it?
The Prefix
Bi
means that a Hydrogen is added, and the charge is reduced by one.
Example:
Bi
Carbonate HCO 3 -1 May also go by Hydrogen Carbonate.

Things to look for:
1) If cations have ( ), the number in parenthesis is their charge.
2) 3) If anions end in -ide they are probably off the periodic table (Monoatomic) If anion ends in -ate or –ite , then it is polyatomic
Write the opposite of what is shown; If name shown, write formula; If formula shown, write name.
