The ide ending in a polyatomic ion actually has no practical meaning involved. The polyatomic compounds that do contain the ide ending have it because they were thought to be monatomic at one time.
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.
yes it is polyatomic ion because it is made up of more than 2 atoms
Polyatomic ion in the compound Na2O2 is known as peroxide. Such polyatomic ion contains two or more atoms covalently bonded.
The correct name for the SO32- polyatomic ion is sulfite ion.
No, NaCO3 is not a polyatomic ion. NaCO3 is the formula for sodium carbonate, which is a compound composed of sodium ions (Na+) and carbonate ions (CO3 2-). The carbonate ion (CO3 2-) is a polyatomic ion.
The two common polyatomic ions whose names end in -ide are the cyanide ion (CN-) and the hydride ion (H-).
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.
Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.

If the ending -ide is added to the name of an ion, it indicates that the ion is a negatively charged ion. This typically means that the ion has gained electrons to achieve a stable electronic configuration.
Na2 SO4? - SO4 is a polyatomic ion with a charge of -2. It is Sulfate. When you have a polyatomic after the first element, you do nothing to change the ending of the polyatomic ion. Since Na has an oxidation number of +1, Na2 creates a +2 which balances out with the -2 of sulfate. So, the name would be Sodium Sulfate. (Again, you do nothing with the ending of a Polyatomic | don't add an -ide at the end.Sodium Sulfate... (oh, and here's a helpful hint: if you havent already noticed, I believe that any compond with more than two elements will have a polyatomic ion. The polyatomic should be the symbols right after the first element, in this case Na - soduim...
They are a binary Compound (Only two Elements)
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.
This is a binary salt.
