Nonmetallic element

Nonmetallic element

 Ionic

Binary compounds are named by calling its metallic ion first Then followed by its non-metallic anion.

METAL NAME + NON-METALLIC ANION NAME

 Naming
Answer:

this chemical compound of NaCl

METAL NAME + NON-METALLIC ANION NAME

NaCl

Metal : Sodium Non-metal : Chloride Ion compound name : Sodium Chloride

Covalent Binary Compounds Nomenclature

The

naming of covalent binary compounds are related with the forming elements and its amount of atoms. The quantty of atoms is written in greek.

Quantit y of Atoms

Greek Prefix

Quantit y of Atoms

Greek prefix

1 2 3 4 5

Mono Di Tri Tetra penta

6 7 8 9 10

Heksa Hepta Okta Nona deka

(Greek prefix of the 1st elements) (1st Element) + (Greek prefix of 2nd element) (2nd element) + ide

EXAMPLE:
Define the chemical name of N2O3 Answer: N 2O 3

Element N (Nytrogen) O (Oxygen) Atomic Number 2 (di) 3 (tri)

So, N2O3 has compounds name: Dinitrogen trioxide

Cation + Anion

Polyatomic base compounds

Metallic name + Hydroxide

 Na2CO3

Cation(metallic element) : Na+ (sodium) Anion (polyatomic ion) : CO32- (Carbonate) Compound name : Sodium Carbonate (not disodium carbonate) Ca(OH)2 Metal name : Ca (calcium) Compound name : Calcium Hydroxide (not calcium dihydroxide)

The nomenclature of polyatomic acid comounds (oxy acid compound) is similar with binary acid that is by defining the polyatomic anion then the H elements (acid).

Polyatomic anion name + acid

Example:
Define the chemical name of H2CO3 and H2SO4

Answer: H2CO3 Polyatomic Anion : CO32- (carbonate) Compound name : Carbonate acid
H2SO4

Polyatomic anion : H2SO42- (sulfate) Compound name : Sulfate acid
