Question
Answer
To describe the atomic makeup of compounds, chemists use what   Systematic methods for naming compounds and for writing chemical formulas  
🗑
Chemical formula indicates   The relative number of atoms of each kind in a chemical compound  
🗑
What does the chemical formula reveal in a molecular compound   The number of atoms of each element contained in a single molecule of teh ocmpound  
🗑
The ionic compounds consists of   Lattice of positive and negative ions held together by mutual attraction  
🗑
The chemical formula for an ionic compound represents what one formula   The simplest ratio of the compound's positive ions (cations) and its negative ions (anions).  
🗑
When there is no subscript written next to an atom's symbol, the value of the subscript is   1  
🗑
By gaining or losing electrons many main-group elements form   ions with noble-gas configurations.  
🗑
Ions formed from a single atom   monatomic ions  
🗑
Rather than gain or lose electrons, atoms of carbon and silicon form   covalent bonds in which they share electrons with other atoms  
🗑
Monoatomic cations are identified by   The element's name  
🗑
How is monatomic anionss named   The ending of the element's name is dropped. The ending ide is added to the root name  
🗑
How is the names and symbols of the common monatomic cations and anions organized   According to their charges  
🗑
Compounds composed of two elements are known as   binary compounds  
🗑
In a binary compound the total number of positive charges and negative charges must   Be equal  
🗑
When writing the formulas for binary ionic compounds the charges of the ions are   Not included in the formula  
🗑
Another name for naming system is   nomenclature  
🗑
The naming system of binary ionic compounds involves   Combining teh names of the compound's positive and negative ions. The name of teh cation is given first, followed by the name of the anion.  
🗑
Write the formula for the binary ionic compound: Potassium and iodine   KI  
🗑
Write the formula for the binary ionic compound: Magnesium and chlorine   MgCl2  
🗑
Write the formula for the binary ionic compound: Sodium and sulfur   Na2S  
🗑
Write the formula for the binary ionic compound: aluminum and sulfur   AI2S3  
🗑
Write the formula for the binary ionic compound: aluminum and nitrogen   AIN  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: AgCI   silver chloride  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: ZnO   zinc oxide  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: CaBr2   calcium bromide  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: SrF2   strontium fluoride  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: BaO   barium oxide  
🗑
Name the binary ionic compounds indicated by: CaCI2   calcium chloride  
🗑
To distinquish the ions that are formed from elements that form two or more cations scientists use   The Stock System of nomenclature  
🗑
The Stock System uses what to indicate an ion's charge   A Roman numeral  
🗑
Where is the Roman numeral placed in the Stock System when indicating a charge   The numeral is enclosed in parentheses and placed immediately after teh metal name  
🗑
Names of metals that commonly form only one cation do not include   a Roman Numeral  
🗑
There is no element that commonly forms more than one   monatomic anion  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Cu2+ and Br-   CuBr2, cooper (II) bromide  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Fe2+ and O2-   FeO, iron (II) oxide  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Pb2+ and CI-   PbCI2, lead (II) chloride  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Hg2+ and S2   HgS, mercury (II) sulfide  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Sn2+ and F-   SnF2, tin (II) fluoride  
🗑
Write the formula and give the name for the compounds formed between: Fe3+ and O2-Fe2   Fe2O3, iron (III) oxide  
🗑

🗑
Give the names for the compounds: CoF3   cobalt (III) fluoride  
🗑
Give the names for the compounds: SnI4   tin (IV) iodide  
🗑
Give the names for the compounds: FeS   iron (II) sulfide  
🗑
Polyatomic ions that contain oxygen   oxyanions  
🗑
The name of the ion with the greater number of oxygen atoms ends in   -ate  
🗑
The name of the ion with the smaller number of oxygen atoms ends in   -ite  
🗑
An anion that has one fewer oxygen atom than the -ite anion has is given the prefix   hypo-  
🗑
An anion that has one more oxygen atom than the -ate anion has is given the prefix   per-  
🗑
When multiples of a polyatomic ion are present in a compound the formula for the polyatomic ion is   Enclosed in parentheses
