Study Notes
Ionic Compound Naming and Formulas
- Ionic compounds are composed of cations (positive ions) and anions (negative ions).
- Binary ionic compounds contain two elements. Examples include NaCl (sodium chloride), KBr (potassium bromide), and ZnS (zinc sulfide).
Steps for Naming Ionic Compounds
- Identify the cation and anion.
- Name the cation using the element name (e.g., sodium).
- Name the anion by changing the ending to "-ide" (e.g., fluorine becomes fluoride).
- Write the cation first, then the anion.
Criss-Cross Method
- Used to determine the formula of an ionic compound.
- The charge of one element becomes the subscript (number of atoms) of the other.
Transition Metals and Variable Charges
- Many transition metals (and some Group 4A metals) can form different positive ions with varying charges.
- Representative elements have fixed charges.
Charges of Some Transition and Group 4A Metals
- Transition Metals: Cr2+, Cr3+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Cu+, Cu2+, Ag+, Au+, Au3+, Zn2+, Cd2+
- Group 4A Metals: Sn2+, Sn4+, Pb2+, Pb4+
Stock System
- Used for metals with multiple possible charges.
- The charge of the metal is indicated by a Roman numeral in parentheses after the metal's name (e.g., Chromium(II), Chromium(III)).
Classical System
- Used for metals with multiple possible charges.
- Uses Latin names and suffixes "-ic" (higher charge) and "-ous" (lower charge) (e.g., Fe3+ is ferric, Fe2+ is ferrous).
