What is a polyatomic compound?
A compound composed of at least 1 polyatomic ion.
What is a binary ionic compound?
A compound composed of the ions of 2 elements, a metal and a non-metal.
What is a binary compound?
A compound composed of two elements and can be either ionic or molecular.
What is a binary molecular compound?
A compound made up of two elements. Both are non-metals and are NOT ions.
What is an acid?
A compound that contains one or more hydrogen atoms (H) and produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.
What information does a prefix in the name of a binary molecular compound give?
A prefix tells how many atoms of an element are present in each molecule of the compound.
What is a polyatomic ion?
A tightly bound group of atoms that behaves as a unit and has a positive or negative charge.
What is the only polyatomic cation?
Ammonium
What is the chemical name for NH₄OH?
Ammonium Hydroxide
What are four exceptions to the naming of polyatomic ions?
Ammonium: NH₄⁺ Cyanide: CN⁻ Hydroxide: OH⁻ Peroxide: O₂²⁻
What is a base?
An ionic compound that produces hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.
How are cations named?
By taking the name of the metal and adding the word ion or cation. Ex. Na+ is either sodium ion or sodium cation.
What is the correct name for CrCl₃?
Chromium (III) Chloride
Which transition elements can form more than one ion?
Chromium, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Copper, Mercury.
The metals in which groups on the periodic table lose electrons and form cations?
Groups 1, 2, and 13
What does the formula HnX for naming acids mean?
H = Hydrogen n = a subscript indicating the number of hydrogen ions that are combining with the anion X = a monatomic or polyatomic anion
What are the three critical ions in your blood?

Hydro(stem of anion)ic acid
What is the name for H₂S(aq)?
Hydrosulfuric Acid
What are monatomic ions?
Ions that consist of a single atom with a positive or negative charge resulting from the loss or gain of one or more valence electrons, respectively.
What does polyatomic ion mean?
Many atom ions.
What are hydrates?
Molecules with excess water attached to them.
What are anions?
Negatively charged atoms that gain electrons.
Which elements form anions?
Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine, Arsenic, Selenium, Bromine, and Iodine
What are cations?
Positively charged atoms that lose electrons.
What is the correct formula for tetraphosphorus trisulfide?
P₄S₃
What are the three exceptions to the naming systems for cations?

Which ion can relieve an upset stomach?
Sodium hydrogen carbonate, which contains HCO₃⁻ (Hydrogen Carbonate).
What is the correct formula for strontium nitride?
Sr₃N₂
How is the charge of any ion of a Group A nonmetal determined?
Subtracting 8 from the group number. Ex. Chlorine is in group 17, so 17-10-8 = -1
How are the charges of some transition metal ions determined?
The charges of the cations must be determined from the number of electrons lost.
What is the classical method (IUPAC)?
The classical name (Latin or English name) of the element is used to form the root name for the element. Ex. Ferrum is Latin for iron. Ferr is the root name for iron.
How do you name a base?
The same way as ionic compounds: the name of the cation followed by the name of the anion. They always end in hydroxide.
How do you name transition ions?
The suffix -ous is used to name the cation with the lower of the two ionic charges. Ex. Fe²⁺ = Ferrous The suffix -ic is used to name the cation with the higher of the two ionic charges. Ex. Fe³⁺ = Ferric
How are anions named?
They start with the stem of the element name and end in -ide. Ex. Cl- is chloride ion or chloride anion.
