Study Notes
Ionic and Covalent Binary Compounds
- Ionic binary compounds are formed from metal and non-metal ions, involving complete electron transfer.
- Covalent binary compounds consist of two non-metal atoms that share electrons, forming molecules.
- Ionic compounds exhibit high melting and boiling points due to strong ionic bonds.
- Ionic compounds show low conductivity in solid state but high conductivity when dissolved in water.
- Covalent compounds have lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds and lower electrical conductivity.
Ternary Compounds
- Ternary compounds contain three different elements, making their structures inherently more complex than binary compounds which consist of only two elements.
- The presence of an additional element introduces more possible interactions and configurations.
Coordination Compounds and Ligands
- Coordination compounds consist of a central metal atom surrounded by an array of ligands, which can be anions or neutral atoms.
- Ligands play a crucial role in determining the geometry of the coordination complex and influence its stability.
- Stronger ligands lead to greater stability of the complex versus weaker ligands.
- Coordination compounds have more complex structures than binary or ternary compounds due to the variable nature of the ligand arrangement.
IUPAC Nomenclature
- Naming conventions differ for binary, ternary, and coordination compounds in IUPAC nomenclature.
- In binary compounds, the first element retains its name, while the second element uses its root name followed by the suffix "-ide."
- Ternary compounds name the cation first, followed by the anion.
- Coordination compounds require specific nomenclature rules reflecting the nature of the central metal and its ligands.
