For covalent compounds involving metals, the above rules are still used when metals are involved:
Rules for binary compounds; ... Naming Chemical Compounds; ... What are the guidelines for naming binary compounds?
Formulas and Names of Binary Metal-Nonmetal Compounds ... Use it as a flow chart to break down the different systems of naming to determine the name of a compound. ... Naming compounds with polyatomic ions
The following links will take you to some helpful tables and exciting naming games. ... Ionic Compound Naming Table 1
Ionic compounds are formed when a metal gives up its electrons to a non-metal. Basically if the compound contains a metal, it is ionic. But there are different sets of rules for transition metals.
When naming compounds, remember the following rules: ... Compounds containing only non-metal elements are named using Type III binary compound rules.
a) All of the above rules for naming binary compounds apply with one addition – write parentheses around the group representing the polyatomic ion when more than one of that ion is needed.
Binary compounds with only two elements ... COVALENT COMPOUNDS ... IONIC COMPOUNDS
Prefix -naming the branches. ... Root - Naming the longest chain (root): ... Suffix - Naming the compound type.
As chemists learned more and more about the composition of simple compounds, it became important to develop a system for naming these compounds in a way that showed their elemental composition.
