Chemistry Type I nameing

How do you name the cation in a Type 1 ionic compound?

Name the cation (metal) first, using its element name.

How do you name the anion in a Type 1 ionic compound?

Name the anion (nonmetal) second, dropping the ending of its element name and adding the suffix "-ide".

What is an important principle for the charges when naming or writing formulas for Type 1 ionic compounds?

Ensure the charges balance to form a neutral compound.

How do you start writing the formula for a Type 1 ionic compound?

Write the symbol for the cation first, followed by its charge, then the symbol for the anion second, followed by its charge.

How do you balance the charges when writing the formula for a Type 1 ionic compound?

Balance the charges to achieve electrical neutrality using subscripts. Use the "criss-cross" method if helpful, but simplify the subscripts to their lowest whole number ratio.

How do you name the cation in a Type 1 ionic compound containing a polyatomic ion?

Name the cation first. If it's a metal, use its element name. If it's the ammonium ion, use "ammonium".

How do you name the anion in a Type 1 ionic compound containing a polyatomic ion?

Name the anion second. If it's a polyatomic ion, use its specific name. If it's a single nonmetal, drop the ending and add the suffix "-ide".

How do you start writing the formula for a Type 1 ionic compound with a polyatomic ion?

Write the symbol for the cation first, followed by its charge, then the formula for the polyatomic ion second, followed by its charge.

When do you use parentheses when writing the formula for a Type 1 ionic compound with a polyatomic ion?

Use parentheses around the polyatomic ion if more than one of that ion is needed to balance the charges.
