How do you determine if a metal needs a roman numeral or the ending ic or ous when you name an ionic compound?
The preferred nomenclature is ALWAYS the Roman numeral form, since it's clear and unambiguous even if the reader does not know the common oxidation states of that metal. For example: to be able to write the formula for "cuprous sulfate" you need to know that copper's common oxidation states are +1 and +2, but it's immediately obvious that copper (I) sulfate should be written Cu2SO4.
What else can I help you with?
Name this binary ionic compound PbCl4 in roman numeral to indicate the chaarge on the metal ion?
Lead(IV) Chloride
What does roman numeral tell you in an ionic bond?
The Roman numeral tells you the number of electrons a polyvalent cation (usually a transition metal) gives up to participate in the ionic bond. Example: "Iron (III) oxide" means the iron is giving up 3 electrons to form the compound Fe2O3.
When do need to use roman numeral in the name of a compound?
For the transition metals, the roman numeral designates the valence number of the metal in the ionic bond. For example CuSO4 is Copper (II) Sulfate, because the copper has a valence of +2 in this bond.
A Roman numeral after the name of a cation shows what type of charge on the cation?
The Ionic Charge
Is potassium and sulfur a ionic compound?
yes
What ending is added to anion in a binary ionic compound?
Examples are for English: -ide, -ate, -ite.
What is the ending of an ionic compound consisting of two elements?
The ending of an ionic compound consisting of two elements typically ends in "-ide." For example, when sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) combine to form an ionic compound, it is called sodium chloride.
Is crospovidone considered an ionic compound or molecular compound?
Molecular.See the Related Questions to the left for how to determine if a molecule is molecular of ionic.
How to determine if a solid chemical were an ionic compound or covalent compound?
ionic compounds are a metal and a non-metal joined together in a bond
What test is commonly used to determine if a compound is ionic or covalent?
The electronegativity difference between the elements in the compound is commonly used to determine if a compound is ionic or covalent. If the electronegativity difference is large (typically greater than 1.7), the compound is likely ionic; if the difference is small (around 0.5 or less), the compound is likely covalent.
What should the anion of an ionic or molecular compound end with?
ide is the suffix used for the ending anion of an ionic bonding.
What ending goes on the very end of the name of any ionic compound?
-ide.
What is the name of the ionic compound cu?
Copper(II) nitrate. The Roman numeral indicates the charge of the copper ion.
What is used to determine the number of each atom in an ionic compound?
The chemical formula of a chemical compound is established after a detailed chemical analysis.
What is the ionic name for aluminum chloride?
The ionic name for aluminum chloride is aluminum (III) chloride. The Roman numeral III indicates that aluminum has a +3 charge in this compound.
Name this binary ionic compound PbCl4 in roman numeral to indicate the chaarge on the metal ion?
Lead(IV) Chloride
What is the ending for names of all binary compound's?
i think that the ending for all names of binary compounds is ide. for example : NaCl is a binary ionic compound and it ends with and ide .
