Study Notes
Cations and Anions
- A cation is defined as an ion with a positive charge.
Naming Non-Metal Anions
- In a binary ionic compound, the name of a non-metal anion is formed by adding the suffix "-ide" to the root of the non-metal element's name.
Polyatomic Ions
- A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms that acts as a single ion and has a specific composition.
Naming Cations
- When naming a cation in a binary compound, the naming convention is to use the same name as the element.
Anions
- Anions can be either monatomic (single atom) or polyatomic (group of atoms).
Naming Binary Compounds
- The correct way to name the compound FeO is iron(II) oxide.
- The compound PbSO4 is correctly named as lead(II) sulfate.
- The correct name for the compound NaNO3 is sodium nitrate.
- The compound AuCl3 is correctly named as gold(III) chloride.
- The correct name for the compound CuOH is copper(II) hydroxide.
