Chemical nomenclature Flashcards
(10 cards)
binary compounds
- write metal
- write non metal and change the ending to ide
chemical formula = cross over rule
stock system
use roman numerals
classical system (metals with two possible ions)
ous for the lowest ion
ic for the highest ion
Compounds that involve hydrogen (it can act like a non metal or a metal)
If found first its considered a metal and doesn’t change
if found second change the ending to ide
polyatomic ion
writing doesn’t change
use cross over rule ( put it in brackets if needed)
Ammonium
NH4-
What’s the stupid sentance to memorize poly ions
Nick the icky baby camel at a clam for supper in Phoenix
the prefix thio
means with sulfur
Iron (ii) thiosulfate
= FeS203
Acetate
C2H3O2 or CH3COO
Molecular compounds (two non metals)
no crossover
no reducing
use prefixes
monzo, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, hepta, octa, Nona, deca
