Chemical Formulas
I.
Ionic Substances –
A.
Profile
1.
Made of metal ( cation / +) and a nonmetal ( anion/ - )
2.
Form crystal lattices that are brittle, will cleave or break along crystal planes
3.
High melting points
4.
.
Dissolve in water to create ions which conduct electricity
a.k.a. salts
B.
1.
Writing formulas
Write the
symbols for the cation, then the anion
2.
Find the charges for each using the periodic table for the cations and your reference chart for the anions
Things to Note:
3.
The number of electrons lost must equal the number of electrons gained. Place subscripts next to the cation and anion which will make the total
number of electrons the same.
*Technique : The Switcheroo : Use the charge on the cation as the subscript for the anion and visa versa.
4.
Reduce the numbers if possible. Always use the lowest whole number ratios
C.
Naming Formulas
1.
Write the name
2.
3.
of the cation and the name of the anion.
If the anion is from the periodic table, change the ending to – ide
Use a Roman numeral to indicate the charge on transition metals, with multiple charges .
tables for examples. Use the reverse switcheroo to determine the charge if needed.

Any home base anion from your chart, your text, your homework, your ingredient labels or anywhere around the world, can be represented in all four ways by
adjusting the name or number of O in the formula !

Molecular Substances –
A.
Profile
1.
Made of nonmetals only ( no charges!)
2.
Found as solids, liquids or gases ( no crystal lattices)
3.
Low melting points
4.
Do not dissolve in water or conduct electricity
B.
Writing formulas
1.
Write the symbols for the elements present in the order they appear.
2.
Use subscripts to indicate the number
a.
Prefixes
1-mono
7-hepta
2-di
8-octa
3.
Do not reduce the numbers for the subscripts.
9-nona
3-tri
10-deca
of atoms of each element present as indicated by the prefixes in the name
4-tetra
11-undeca
5-penta 6-hexa
12-dodeca
These represent the minimum number of atoms needed for the substance in question.
C.
Naming formulas
1.
Write the name
2.
Change the ending of the last
3.
Use the prefixes to indicate the number
4.

of each of the elements in the compound in the order they appear.
element to -ide

If there is an o vowel repeated then only include it once
III.
Acidic Substances –
A.
1.
Profile
Made of mostly nonmetals, hydrogen is always present and usually is at the beginning or end of the formula
2.
Dissolves in water to produce H+ ions and anions
3.

4.
Named as ionic substances with a twist
Anion ending
Acid change (The twist)
-ate
-ic + acid
-ite
-ous + acid
-ide
Hydro + ic + acid
The acid phrase that pays: Say it with me now!
ate to ic, ite to ous, ide to hydro,ic acid. Again!

***Identify substituents attached to the molecule by location, quantity and alphabetically by name. ( These
changes will take place at the beginning of the name/formula
Chains of one or more carbon ( methyl,ethyl,propyl,butyl,pentyl&..)
Halogens ( chloro,bromo,iodo,fluoro)
What if…….there is a ring ?
Cyclo should preceed the name
What if there are double, triple bonds ?
Identify which carbon they are on, by counting from the end closest to the
substituent.
What if there are multiple double or triple bonds?
Identify which carbon they are on by counting from the end closest to the
first one and keep numbering from then on.
What if there are other atoms attached and multiple bonds?
Number the carbons based on the location of the multiple bond and use those numbers to identify the
locations of the other atoms attached.
What if there are attachments and more than one multiple bond?
Number the carbons based on the location of the first multiple bond and indicate the attachments first, then
the location of the multiple bonds by number and with a prefix tucked into the final part of the name.
