Chapter 4
Nomenclature
  • BEWARE!!!
  • There is a lot memorization involved
  • with this chapter.

"In the old days compounds..."
  • In the old days compounds had common names like: water, milk of magnesia, gypsum, quicklime, etc.
  • Today we know of over 4 million compounds. Common
    names won’t work
  • Therefore we have a system!
  • First we will learn about
    binary compounds, compounds made of two elements
  • There are two classes:
  • 1) metal/nonmetal
  • 2) nonmetal/nonmetal
3
4.1 Naming Compounds that Contain a metal and a Nonmetal
  • Metals tend to lose electrons  e-,
  • Nonmetals gain electrons   e-
  • Metals like to be positive +
  • Nonmetals like to be negative -
  • These get together to form binary ionic compounds
4
"When writing the"
  • When writing the
  • formula the cation is
  • first, anion second
  • When naming just
    say their names
  • Some cations have
    only one charge
    ever (called Type I ion)
  • Some have more than
    one (Type II ion)
  • There are also Type I compounds and Type II compounds
5
Type I Binary ionic compounds
  • Reviewing the rules:
6
Type II binary ionic compounds
  • Some cations can form more than one charge!!!
  • (Type II ion!)
  • Let’s look at an example….
  • iron can form 2+ and 3+ ions
  • so what is the iron in iron chloride? Fe2+ or Fe3+?
  • must be a way to distinguish the two!
  • use Roman numerals…
7
"So what is the name..."
  • So what is the name
    of FeCl2?
  • Chloride always has
    a 1- charge, and there
    are two, so…
  • The positive guy must
    have a total
    2+ charge, and…
  • There is only one cation so it get the whole 2+ charge all to itself, so…
  • It must be iron(II), so…
  • It is iron(II) chloride
  • Know Table 4.2 (the systematic is emphasized in this class!!)
8
examples
  • CuCl
  • copper(I) chloride
  • HgO
  • mercury(II) oxide
  • Fe2O3
  • iron(III) oxide
  • Mn2O4
  • manganese(IV) oxide
  • PbCl4
  • lead(IV) chloride
9
"summary of Type I and..."
  • summary of Type I and Type II
10
summary
examples
  • CoBr2
  • cobalt(II) bromide
  • CaCl2
  • calcium chloride
  • Al2O3
  • aluminum oxide
  • CrCl3
  • chromium(III) chloride
11
4.2 Naming Binary Compounds that Contain only Nonmetals (Type III)
  • Type III contain only NM!
  • think prefixes!
  • (note: water and ammonia are Type III but always keep their common names)
12
 
13
examples
  • BF3
  • boron trifluoride
  • NO
  • nitrogen monoxide
  • N2O5
  • dinitrogen pentoxide
  • PCl5
  • phosphorus pentachloride
  • SF6
  • sulfur hexafluoride
  • SO2
  • sulfur dioxide
14
4.3 naming binary compounds:
a review
15
4.4 Naming Compounds that contain Polyatomic Ions
  • There is another(!) type of compound, one that involves…
  • Polyatomic ions. Ions with more than one type of atom in it
  • gotta know Table 4.4


16
"Notice many have O in..."
  • Notice many have O in them
  • Called oxyanions
  • Most common is called root-ate (e.g. sulfate)
    • One less O than most common?
    • root-ite (nitrite)
    • One less than that?
    • hypo-root-ite (hypochlorite)
    • One more than most common?
    • per-root-ate (perchlorate)
  • Must be able to recognize Polyatomic ions!!!
17
examples
  • Na2SO4
  • sodium sulfate
  • Fe(NO3)3
    • parentheses here mean there are 3 of what’s inside.
      “NO33” is nonsense!
  • iron(III) nitrate
  • Mn(OH)2
  • manganese(II) hydroxide
18
summary examples
  • Na2CO3
  • sodium carbonate
  • FeBr3
  • iron(III) bromide
  • PCl3
  • phosphorus trichloride
  • CsClO4
  • cesium perchlorate
  • CuSO4
  • copper(II) sulfate
19
4.5 Naming Acids
  • Some things when dissolved in water can lose an H+ right off them
  • called acids
  • taste sour
  • know these!
  • have their own
    name system…
20
 
21
4.6 Writing Formulas from Names
  • so far we’ve done formulas to names…
  • now we do reverse! yippee!
  • you HAVE TO KNOW all the names I warned you about!!!
22
examples
  • potassium hydroxide
  • KOH
  • sodium carbonate
  • Na2CO3
  • nitric acid
  • HNO3
  • calcium chloride
  • CaCl2
  • dinitrogen pentoxide
  • N2O5
  • ammonium perchlorate
  • NH4ClO4
