When naming compounds, you need to understand these different rules, as well as how to spot clues that will help you properly name the compounds. Follow this guide for some basic rules on how chemical compounds get their name, and how to apply names to compounds you are unfamiliar with.
To name a compound, the cation name and the anion named are added together. For example, [latex]\text{NaF}[/latex] is also known as sodium fluoride. If either the cation or the anion was a polyatomic ion, the polyatomic ion name is used in the name of the overall compound.
Determine the name of a simple molecular compound from its chemical formula. Molecular compounds are inorganic compounds that take the form of discrete molecules. Examples include such familiar substances as water (H2O) (H 2 O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) (CO 2).
How do you name a chemical? How do you figure out the formula of a compound? This short tutorial will answer both of those questions for simple ionic compo...
Generally, there are two types of inorganic compounds that can be formed: ionic compounds and molecular compounds. Nomenclature is the process of naming chemical compounds with different names so that they can be easily identified as separate chemicals.
Kids learn about naming chemical compounds in chemistry including conventions, order of the elements, metals, non-metals, acids, and examples on naming.
This and the following section describe the rules for naming simple covalent compounds, beginning with inorganic compounds and then turning to simple organic compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen.
Nomenclature, a collection of rules for naming things, is important in science and in many other situations. This module describes an approach that is used to name simple ionic and molecular compounds, such as NaCl, CaCO 3, and N 2 O 4.
Nomenclature is a fancy word for the process of naming compounds. In chemistry, we have a set of specific rules used to name compounds so scientists can communicate effectively.
Naming compounds have never been so simple! With my strategy and step by step examples, you will be naming compounds like a pro in no time! This video explains every single type of ionic...
