Naming Ions
1
Monatomic Ions
Ionic compounds consist of a positive metal ion and a
negative nonmetal ion combined in a proportion such
that their charges add up to a net charge of zero.
NaCl – consists of one Na+ and one Cl-.
Monatomic ions consists of a single atom with a positive
or negative charge resulting from the loss or gain of one
or more valence electrons.
2
Monatomic Ions - Cations
Cations tend to lose valence electrons. (1+ charge – lose 1
electron, 2+ charge – lose 2 electrons, etc. )
When the metals in Groups 1A, 2A, and 3A lose electrons, they
form cations with positive charges equal to their group number.
The name of the cations of the Group 1A, 2A and 3A are the
same as the name of the metal, followed by the word ion or
cation.
Na+ is sodium ion, Ca2+ is calcium ion, Al3+ is aluminum ion.
3
Monatomic Ions - Anions
Nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form anions, so the
charge of a nonmetallic ion is negative.
The charge of any ion of a Group A nonmetal is
determined by subtracting 8 from the group number.
Group 7A form anions with a 1- charge (7-8 = -1)
Anion names start with the stem of the element name
and end in –ide.
Anion of fluorine is fluoride ion (F-), anion of chlorine is
chloride ion (Cl-)
4
Ions of Transition Metals
Many of the transition metals (Group 1B – 8B) form more
than one cation with different ionic charges.
Two methods are used to name these ions.
1. Stock System – a roman numeral in parentheses is
placed after the name of the element to indicate the
numerical value of the charge.
Fe2+ is iron(II) ion
Fe3+ is iron(III) ion.
2. Classical – name of the element is used to form the
root name for the element.
Fe2+ is ferrous ion
Fe3+ is ferric ion

Polyatomic Ions
Polyatomic Ions are composed of more than one atom.

four oxygen atoms.
Polyatomic ions are a tightly bound group of atoms that
behave as a unit and carry a charge.
The names of most polyatomic anions end in –ite or –ate.

Naming Ionic Compounds

Naming Binary Ionic Compounds
A binary compound is composed of two elements and
can be either ionic or molecular (covalent).
To name any binary ionic compound, place the cation
name first, followed by the anion name.
Cs2O is cesium oxide
NaBr is sodium bromide
Cu2O is copper(I) oxide
CuO is copper(II) oxide
11
Writing Formulas
Binary Ionic Compounds
Write the symbol of the cation and then the anion. Add
whatever subscripts are needed to balance the charges.
The positive charge of the cation must balance the
negative charge of the anion so that the net ionic charge
of the formula is zero.
K+ + Cl-  KCl
Ca2+ + Br -  CaBr2
Fe3+ + O2-  Fe2O3
Use the crisscross method – the numerical value of the
charge of each ion is crossed over and becomes the
12
subscript for the other ion.
Writing Formulas
Polyatomic Ionic Compounds
An –ate or –ite ending on the name of a compound
indicates that the compound contains a polyatomic anion
that includes oxygen.
Write the symbol for the cation followed by the formula
for the polyatomic ion and balance the charges.
Ca2+ + NO3-  Ca(NO3)2
Sr2+ + SO32-  SrSO3
Li+ + CO32-  Li2CO3
Use the crisscross method – the numerical value of the
charge of each ion is crossed over and becomes the
subscript for the other ion.

Naming Polyatomic Ionic
Compounds
First recognize that the compound contains a polyatomic
ion.
State the cation first and then the anion
NaClO
sodium hypochlorite
(NH4)2C2O4
ammonium oxalate
Li2CO3
lithium carbonate

Molecular Compounds

Naming Molecular Compounds
Binary ionic compounds are composed of the ions of two
elements, a metal and a nonmetal.
Binary molecular compounds are composed of two
elements, two nonmetals and they are not ions.
Binary molecular compounds are composed of
molecules, not ions, so ionic charges cannot be used to
write formulas or to name them.
In addition, when two nonmetallic elements combine,
they often do so in more than one way. (CO, CO2)
Prefixes in the names of binary molecular compounds
help distinguish compounds containing different
amounts of the same two elements.
16
Naming Molecular Compounds
The prefix in the name of a binary molecular compound
tells how many atoms of each element are present in
each molecule of the compound.

17
Naming Molecular Compounds
The names of all binary molecular compounds end in
–ide.
CO is carbon monoxide
CO2 is carbon dioxide
If just one atom of the first element is in the formula, omit
the prefix mono•Name the elements in order listed in the formula
•Use prefixed to indicate the number of each kind of atom
•The suffix of the name of the second element is –ide.
N2O is dinitrogen monoxide
SF6 is sulfur hexafluoride.
18
Writing Formulas
Molecular Compounds
Use the prefixes in the name to tell you the subscript of
each element in the formula.
Then write the correct symbols for the two elements with
the appropriate subscripts.
Dinitrogen tetraoxide
N2O4
Diphosphorus trioxide
P2O3

Acids and Bases
20
Naming Acids
Acid is a compound that contains one or more hydrogen
atoms and produces hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved
in water.
When naming acids, the acid consists of an anion
combined with as many hydrogen ions as needed to
make the molecule electrically neutral.
The general chemical formulas of acids is HnX.
X is a monatomic or polyatomic anion
n is a subscript indication the number of hydrogen ions
combined with the anion.
21
Naming Acids
Three rules are used to name acids. The name depends
on the name of the anion and its suffix (-ide, -ite, -ate)
1. a. When the name of the anion ends in –ide, the acid
name begins with the prefix hydro-.
b. The stem of the anion has the suffix –ic and is
followed by the word acid.

Writing Formulas for Acids

write the formula for acids.
Hydrobromic acid
Hydro indicates the bromide ion
HBr
Phosphorous acid
-ous indicates the phosphite ion
H3PO3
phosphoric acid
-ic and beginning with the anion name indicates the phosphate ion
H3PO4
25
Bases
A base is an ionic compound that produced hydroxide
ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.
Bases are named the same way as other ionic
compounds – the name of the cation is followed by the
name of the anion.
NaOH is sodium hydroxide
To write the formulas for bases, write the symbol for the
cation followed by the formula for the hydroxide ion.
(then use the crisscross method to write the formula as
you do as you do for any ionic compound)
Aluminum hydroxide – Al3+ + OH-  Al(OH)3
Ammonium hydroxide – NH4+ + OH-  NH4OH
