Naming Chemical Compounds

Your Name Period ?

COLORING THE PERIODIC TABLEColor 1: Shade in elements in group 1 and 2 (not hydrogen) as well as Ag, Zn, Al

Color 2: Shade in the non metals (elements to the right of the stair step and hydrogen)

Color 3: All other metallic elements

Make the following Key at the bottom:

Ionic compound, no roman numeral

Ionic compound, use roman numeral

Molecular compound, use prefixes

PUT IONIC CHARGES ON PERIODIC TABLEGroup 1 = +1Group 2 = +2Group 8 = 0Group 7 = -1 Group 6 = -2Group 5 = -3

Ag +1Zn +2Al +3

LOOK AT THE BACK PAGE… Add the diatomic molecules:

I2, Br2, Cl2, F2, O2, N2, H2

Methane = CH4

Ammonia = NH3

Add Cyanide = CN- to -1 Ions

IONIC NAMINGStep One: Name the cation and anion (in that order) Recall – Anions end in –ide unless they are polyatomic ions ex) FeCl3 iron chloride

Step Two: Figure out if you need a Roman numeral in the name. Look at the back page of your flip book and see if it needs a Roman numeral. If it is a transition metal, it probably does. Ex) Yes, this one does.Step Three: Figure out what the Roman numeral should be The charges in an ionic compound must add up to zero.

Reverse the “Swap and Reduce” – but make sure the charge on the ion is correct Mathematically determine the charge Fe+?? 3 Cl-1 = -3 Fe must be 3+ to make the charge add up to zero Iron (III) Chloride

IONIC NAMING EXAMPLESMgBr2V2O5CuSO4Cu2O

IONIC FORMULAS Step One: Translate the name into the ions. Don’t skip this step.

The roman numeral tells the charge of the ion for transition metals. If no charge given, use the periodic table to determine.

Ex) copper (II) fluoride Cu+2 F-1

Step Two: Swap and Reduce Cu+2 F-1 CuF2

Step Three: Put parenthesis around the polyatomic ion if necessary after swapping It is needed when you swap down a number to a PAI other than 1. Ex) calcium hydroxide Ca+2 OH-1 Ca(OH)2

Step Four: Reduce if necessary Looking only at the numbers you swapped (not numbers part of the polyatomic

ion), make sure they are in the lowest possible ratio. Ex) Sn2S4 SnS2 Ex) Fe2(SO4)2 FeSO4

MOLECULAR NAMINGPrefixes

1 mono-    6 hexa-2 di-   7 hepta-3 tri-      8 octa-4 tetra-   9 nona-5 penta-   10 deca-

To name a molecular compound, write two words:Prefix + Name of first nonmetal           +          Prefix + Name of second nonmetal + ide Exceptions:    

- don’t write mono- if there is only one of the first element.         - don’t use the following double vowels when writing names (oa oo)

MOLECULAR NAMING EXAMPLESCl2O7 = dichlorine heptoxideCBr4 = carbon tetrabromide

MOLECULAR FORMULASUse the prefixes given in the name to determine how many of each type of atom you have.

Do not reduce (like ionic compounds)

MOLECULAR FORMULA EXAMPLEStetraiodine nonoxide = I4O9

sulfur hexafluoride = SF6
