Chemical Naming

Chemical Naming:
Chemical nomenclature is

a set of rules to
generate systematic names for chemical compounds. The
nomenclature rules used most frequently worldwide are
these created and developed by the International Union of
Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). For our purposes,
we will simply say it is a system of naming chemical
compounds.
There are two primary forms of compounds that will
require naming in the world of chemistry. There are
organic compounds, compounds that contain the element
carbon, and there are inorganic compounds, all remaining
compounds that do not include the element carbon.
In this course we are going to focus our attention on
naming the inorganic compounds, and writing the
formulas of these compounds.
You should have already memorized the twenty five
common polyatomic ions that are listed on the back of
your periodic table. If you havent memorized these yet,
it is of utmost importance to accomplish this task as soon
as possible. This is because these polyatomic ions play a
significant role in naming compounds and writing
formulas.
The following are some examples of naming
compounds and writing formulas.

Sodium chloride
Magnesium nitride
Zinc oxalate
Nickel (II) nitrate
Iron (II) sulfate
Iron (III) sulfate

Nomenclature and Household Items

Background:
Many household items contain chemicals that are commonly used in everyday life. Some chemicals are edible while
others would be poisonous to consume. Many non-edible household chemicals are used as cleaners. Soaps, detergents,
drain-openers, countertop sprays, oven sprays, furniture polish, air fresheners and floor cleaners are examples of
chemical substances that are commonly used inside the home. Other chemicals are edible and can be used for cooking
or in medication. Baking soda, sugar, salt, and baking powder are all edible substances commonly used in cooking.
Antacids, aspirin, and vitamin C are edible substances that are used as medicines.
Household items can be classified as acids (pH<7), bases (pH>7), or neutral (ph=7). Soaps, detergents, drain-openers,
antacids, and ammonia can be classified as bases. Antacids contain carbonates, bicarbonates, and hydroxides to
neutralize the hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid), Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), and vinegar
(solution of acetic acid) can be classified as acidic.
Product containers list valuable information such as ingredients, warnings, customer service numbers, and expiration
dates. The chemical name listed first on the ingredient list is the main component of that substance. The warning label
will vary with the chemical hazard of the main ingredient. In this lab many household items will be viewed to obtain the
chemical name. The chemical name will then be used to write the formula of the compound.

Procedure:
1. Visit each of the twelve lab stations and copy down the name of the substance.
2. While at the lab stations, decide the main use for the substance (cooking, cleaning, or medicine) and record this
in the usage column.
3. Look on the ingredient list to find the main component on the substance. Write the name of the main
component in the appropriate column of the data table.
4. Looking at the name of the main ingredient/component, write the formula of the substance.
5. Look to see if the substance has a warning or hazard listed. Write Yes if the substance has a hazard or a
warning. Write No if the substance does not list a hazard or warning.

Analysis:
1. Identify how many items you have in each usage category. Explain why you grouped particular items with each
other and not in a different group.
2. On what types of products did most of the warning/hazard labels appear? Explain why products that serve a
similar purpose might have similar warnings.
3. Make a general statement explaining a consistent pattern for each type of chemical (cooking, cleaning, and
medicine). Make a statement for all three types of products. Ex: All cleaning products.. All cooking products
4. Create a fourth category you could have used to classify the products. What would that category have been
called? Which products would you have put into this new category? Why move these products to the new
category.
5. What smell do you associate with a swimming pool? Is this smell also present in any of the products you looked
at? Hypothesize why swimming pools do not contain warning labels regarding the chemicals being used and
support your answer.

Program Learning: Writing and Naming Chemical Formulas

There are a few inorganic compounds which are identified by their common or trivial names. The most
common of these are H20, named water, and NH3, named ammonia. All other inorganic compounds are named
according to the systematic rules of nomenclature. Two or more systems may be used in naming a compound.
Generally, no one system is used exclusively, and it is necessary to become familiar with the systems in
common use.

This program involves the nomenclature of compounds containing two different elements. Such compounds are
called binary compounds. The general rule for naming binary compounds is that the less electronegative (more
electropositive or more metallic) element is named first, followed by the name of the more electronegative
(more nonmetallic) element, with the name of the latter having its normal ending replaced by the suffix ide.

KBr is classed as a (1) __________________ compound because it contains (2) ___________________

different elements. In this compound, the name of the metallic element is (3) _____________________
and the name of the nonmetallic element is (4) ________________. In naming this compound, the name
of the (5) ____________________ element is written first. The normal ending of the name of the
nonmetallic element is removed, forming a stem, and to this stem is added the suffix (6) ____________.
Following this procedure, the name of the compound KBr is written as (7) _______________________.

In forming a stem, the last syllable in the name of the element is generally dropped. The stem never
ends in a vowel. Thus, the stem for chlorine is chlor. The stem for iodine is (8) __________________.
The stem for arsenic is (9) _____________________, for selenium (10) _________________________,
for carbon (11) _______________. Should the stem end in a vowel or a vowel sound, the vowel is also
dropped to make the stem. In making a stem from nitrogen, dropping the last syllable gives nitro. Since
o is a vowel, it also is dropped, giving nitr. A binary compound in which nitrogen is the more
electronegative element is called a nitride. The stem for oxygen is (12) ____________________ since
oxy ends in a vowel sound. The stem for phosphorus is (13)______________. There are exceptions to
these rules.

Consider the compound MgI2. The name of the metallic element is (14) ___________________ and the
name of the nonmetallic element is (15) _____________________. The (16) _____________________
element is named first. A stem is formed from the name of the (17) ___________________ element and
to this stem is added the suffix (18) _______________. Following this procedure, the name of the
compound MgI2 is written as (19) ______________________________.

To write the correct chemical name of the compound NH3, commonly known as
(20)__________________, it is necessary to know that nitrogen is more electronegative (nonmetallic)
than hydrogen. The element (21) ____________ is named first, and a stem is formed from the name of
the element (22)____________________. Thus, the correct chemical name for NH3 is
(23)__________________________. Usually, formulas of compounds are written with the symbol of
the more metallic element listed first.

Write the names of the following compounds, assuming that the more metallic element is listed first.
H20

(24) ___________________________________

AlF3

(25) ___________________________________

Ca2C

(26) ___________________________________

K2S

(27) ___________________________________

Mg3N2

(28) ___________________________________

Ca3P2

(29) ___________________________________

BaH2

(30) ___________________________________

HCl

(31) ___________________________________

The binary and hydrogen-containing compounds of Group VII A elements and Group VI A elements other than
oxygen produce acids when dissolved in water. Such acids are named by adding the prefix hydro- and the
suffix ic to the stem of the name of the nonmetal. This word is then followed by the word acid to complete the
name of the substance. Consider the name of the acid which results when the gas hydrogen chloride, HCl, is
dissolved in water.

The stem of the nonmetallic element is (32) _______________________. Adding to this stem the prefix
(33) _______________ and the suffix (34) ________________________ gives the word
(35) ____________________. Thus, a water solution of HCl is named (36) _____________________
acid. A water solution of HF is named (37) _________________________. A water solution of HBr is
named (38) ___________________________. (In naming sulfur compounds, the suffixes ic and ous
are added to the word sulfur rather than to the stem sulf.)

There are several polyatomic ions which are treated as single atoms when naming compounds. The names and
formulas of the most common of these ions are:

NH4+ -

ammonium ion

OH- -

hydroxide ion

CN- -

cyanide ion

(Note the difference between NH3, ammonia, which is a neutral molecule, and NH4+, the ammonium
ion, which carries a charge of +1.) Compounds containing the above ions are named according to the
general rule for naming binary compounds. Thus, the name for NaOH is sodium hydroxide. The name
for NH4Cl is (39) __________________________________________. The name for KCN is
(40)_____________________________. The name for NH4OH is (41) ________________________.

The same elements can sometimes combine to form more than one compound. For example, the elements
sulfur and oxygen can combine to form the compounds SO2 and SO3. Since SO2 and SO3 are two distinct
compounds, both cannot be named sulfur oxide. Several methods may be used to distinguish between such
compounds.

For binary compounds of nonmetals, the general rule is modified to include prefixes with the names of
the elements. The prefix mono- means one, but is generally not used. The other prefixes up to 10 are di, two; tri-, three; tetra-, four; penta-, five; hexa-, six; hepta-, seven; octa-, eight; ennea- or nona-, nine;
and deca-, ten. Thus N2O5 is named dinitrogen pentoxide, NO2 is named nitrogen dioxide, and N2O4 is
named dinitrogen tetroxide. For P4O10, the prefix (42) _____________________ is used with
phosphorus and the prefix (43)__________________ is used with oxide to give the name
(44)________________________________________________. When a prefix ending in a is added to
a word beginning with o or a, the a in the prefix is dropped.

Name the following compounds according to the above rule.

SF4

(45) _____________________________________

SF6

(46) _____________________________________

SO2

(47) _____________________________________

SO3

(48) _____________________________________

The preferred system for naming compounds of metals with variable oxidation states is the IUPAC
(International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) system, often known as the Stock system. According to
this system, the oxidation state of the metal is indicated by writing it in Roman numerals enclosed in
parentheses after the name of the metal. For binary compounds, the suffix ide is added to the stem of the name
of the nonmetal as before. Consider the compounds SnO and SnO2. Since the usual oxidation number of
oxygen in compounds is 2, the oxidation numbers of Sn in SnO and SnO2 are +2 and +4 respectively. Thus,
the compound SnO is named tin(II) oxide. In compounds of metals with chlorine, the oxidation number of
chlorine is 1. Thus, in the compounds FeCl2 and FeCl3 the oxidation numbers of Fe are +2 and +3,
respectively. According to the IUPAC system, FeCl2 is named iron (II) chloride and FeCl3 is named
(57) _________________________________. Name the following compounds according to the IUPAC
system.
