Ions of elements taken off of the Periodic Table that have a negative charge. In other words, ions that contain only one element. For example, the Chloride Ion (Cl-1) is the ion of Chlorine. Naming the ion goes like this:
Chlorine-"ine"=chlor+"ide"=chloride. In other words, drop the ending of the name of the element and add "ide".
The usual endings for polyatomic ions are "-ate" and "-ite." The "-ate" ending signifies the ion with the larger number of oxygen atoms, while the "-ite" ending signifies the ion with one less oxygen atom.
The "ate" in carbonate refers to the oxygen atom and the negative charge it carries, denoting the presence of a polyatomic ion (CO3 2-). The "ate" ending is a common suffix used to indicate this type of ion in chemical nomenclature.
No. The hydroxide ion has a negative charge as do all ions ending in -ide, -ite, or -ate.
The "ite" vs. "ate" in ions refers to the number of oxygens in the ion. ex: Nitrate = NO3- Nitrite = NO2- It follows the system of: per....ate (add one oxygen to ate) ate (3 or 4 oxygens, depending on the ion, this is usually the "base") ite (subtract one oxygen from ate) hypo....ite (subract two oxygens from ate
The names for ionic compounds typically come from the combination of the names of the ions that make up the compound. The cation is listed first followed by the anion, with the endings of the anions often changing to -ide, -ite, or -ate depending on the specific ion present.
The usual endings for polyatomic ions are "-ate" and "-ite." The "-ate" ending signifies the ion with the larger number of oxygen atoms, while the "-ite" ending signifies the ion with one less oxygen atom.
ite or ate
Bicarbonate is an anion. Ions ending in -ate, -ite, or -ide are anions.
Polyatomic ions with the suffix -ate typically contain one or more oxygen atoms. These ions often form from the combination of a central atom with oxygen and other elements, creating a negatively charged ion with a specific overall charge.
An ion becomes charged when it gains or loses electrons, leading to an imbalance between the number of protons and electrons. If an ion loses electrons, it becomes positively charged (cation), whereas if it gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged (anion). This charge imbalance is what enables ions to interact with other charged particles in chemical reactions.
The name of an oxoanion ends with 'ate' when the central atom of it has the highest possible oxidation number. If it is slightly lesser (mostly 2), the common names of these compounds end with 'ite'. If the anion has no oxygen in it, usually it ends with 'ide'.
It will end in -ic acid. For example perchlorate --> perchloric acid
The "ate" in carbonate refers to the oxygen atom and the negative charge it carries, denoting the presence of a polyatomic ion (CO3 2-). The "ate" ending is a common suffix used to indicate this type of ion in chemical nomenclature.
Gyrate
they basically ate the same things we do here in California just with different names
The -ite or -ate ending in a polyatomic ion is simply an indication of the amount of oxygen atoms present. The -are ending is used in the base form. If the polyatomic ion has one less oxygen atom than the -ate form, the -ite form applies.
For polyatomic anions containing oxygen, or oxyions, the most common for of the ion has a name ending in -ate.
