Types of Chemical FormulasTypes of Chemical Formulas
An empirical formula indicates the relative number of atoms of each element in the compound. It is the simplest type of formula.
A molecular formula shows the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound.
A structural formula shows the number of atoms and the bonds between them, that is, the relative placement and connections of atoms in the molecule.
A chemical formula is comprised of element symbols and numerical subscripts that show the type and number of each atom present inthe smallest unit of the substance.
The empirical formula for hydrogen peroxide is HO.
The molecular formula for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2.
The structural formula for hydrogen peroxide is H-O-O-H.

Chap 2: Matter and Nomenclature 93
Nomenclature: BasicsNomenclature: BasicsTwo general classes of inorganic molecules:
1. Those containing a metal cation and a nonmetal anion OR a metal cation and a polyatomic anion (ionic compounds). There are two types of these ionic compounds:
(a). Those whose metal has only one possible positive oxidation state (Type I compounds);
(b). Those whose metal has more than one possible positive oxidation state (Type II compounds)
2. Those containing only nonmetals (molecular compounds; Type III compounds)
The nomenclature scheme reflects the compounds class or type.

Chem 6A - Chapter 2 (Part B)
Chap 2: Matter and Nomenclature 99
Nomenclature: Nomenclature: CationCation BasicsBasicsTo name a cation (or the first element in a Type III
compound): Type I: Use the name of the element; if you are talking
about an ion by itself put ‘ion’ after the name: Na+ = sodium ion; Mg+2 = magnesium ion Special cations: NH4
+ = ammonium ion; H3O+ = hydronium ion
Type II: Use the name of the element AND its oxidation state (or charge); use roman numerals in parentheses to denote this; if you are talking about an ion by itself put ‘ion’ after the name:
Cu+2 = copper (II) ion; Cr+6 = chromium (VI) ion
Type III : Use the name; denote number of that element present using greek prefixes (more later).
Chap 2: Matter and Nomenclature 100
Nomenclature: Anion BasicsNomenclature: Anion BasicsTo name a monatomic anion (OR the second element in a
binary Type III compound):
For ALL: Take the root name of the element and add -ide to the end: if you are talking about an ion by itselfput ‘ion’ after the name:
Cl- = chloride ion; S-2 = sulfide ion; P-3 = phosphide ion
Type III Compounds ONLY: Add to the name of the second element a prefix denoting how many of that element there are:
XO2 would be “X dioxide”, e.g. titanium dioxide
POLYATOMIC ANIONS: These have their own nomenclature you need to know

a) If an ion has ONE LESS oxygen than the -ate ion, change -ate to -ite (charge does not change!);

Determining Determining cationcation charge for Type II ionscharge for Type II ions
Based on knowing your anions and their charges!
A compound is neutral and has a charge of zero.
The sum of all the oxidation states in a compound must equal the overall charge on the ion or molecule.
Set up and solve for the unknown algebraically; so for Fe2O3:

1. START by naming as if it were a Type I compound:
N2F4: nitrogen fluoride
2. THEN add a greek prefix to tell how MANY of each element there are:
N2F4: dinitrogen tetrafluoride
* Note: if there is only one of the first element, the prefix mono is NOT used:
SO2 is sulfur dioxide NOT monosulfur dioxide

Nomenclature: Exceptions (1)Nomenclature: Exceptions (1)1. Some compounds have been known and used for so
long that their trivial (or common names) have become accepted by the IUPAC as official:
H2O = water CH4 = methane PH3 = phosphine
NH3 = ammonia SiH4 = silane N2H4 = hydrazine
2. Oxides of some nonmetals will sometimes be named as if they were Type II compounds:
P2O5 = phosphorus (V) oxide; SeO3 = selenium (VI) oxide
Note: this is an older nomenclature system that is slowly being phased out.

Nomenclature: Exceptions (2)Nomenclature: Exceptions (2)3. For Type II metals with only two common oxidation
states an older, Latin system was once used; while it is not employed very often it is useful to know some simple rules regarding it. It is sometimes called the “-ous/-ic” system, where the LOWER charged cation will be denoted by the latin root name for that element plus -ous and the HIGHER charged cation will be denoted by the latin root name for that element plus -ic :
Fe2+ = ferrous ion/Fe3+ = ferric ion; Sn2+ = stannous ion/Sn4+ = stannic ion
Not used much but still can be found being employed
4. Compounds containing hydrogen listed as the first element are acids and named differently, as are many carbon compounds.
Chap 2: Matter and Nomenclature 115
Acid NomenclatureAcid NomenclatureAn acid is a compound that contains an acidic
hydrogen (an H that ionizes in water) :
Not all hydrogens are ionizable; by convention, to indicate when one IS, we begin the chemical formula with it:
HC2H3O2 (acetic acid) has four hydrogens but only ONE is acidic (underlined for emphasis)
There are two types of acids: binary and oxoacids
HX(aq) H (aq) X – (aq)

Binary Acid NomenclatureBinary Acid NomenclatureFor BINARY acids (HX(aq), where X does NOT
contain oxygen; it MUST be in aqueous solution); Add hydro…ic acid to the root of the element X:
H2S (aq) = hydrosulfuric acid; HI (aq) = hydroiodic acid; HN3 (aq) = hydrazoic acid
Note: if phase is NOT aqueous, name as if it were a Type I compound (even though they are considered to be molecular in nature):
H2S (g) = hydrogen sulfide; HI (g) = hydrogen iodide; HN3 (l) = hydrogen azide
Chap 2: Matter and Nomenclature 117
OxoacidOxoacid NomenclatureNomenclatureIf the acid contains oxygen (HOX or HXOn) its name will
be a function of the name of the anion portion (i.e. the portion remaining after all the acidic H’s have been removed: OX- or XOn
-); so:
Determine the anion name;
If the name ends in -ate, replace -ate with -ic acid
If the name ends in -ite, replace -ite with -ous acid
Leave prefixes alone; the root name is sometimes tweaked to aid in pronunciation
H2SO4(aq) anion is SO4-2 (sulfate) acid name is sulfuric acid
HClO(aq) anion is ClO- (hypochlorite) acid name is hypochlorous acid

MixturesHeterogeneous mixtures: have one or more visible boundaries between the components.
Homogeneous mixtures: have no visible boundaries because the components are mixed as individual atoms, ions, and molecules.
Solutions: A homogeneous mixture is also called a solution. Solutions in water are called aqueous solutions, and are very important in chemistry. Although we normally think of solutions as liquids, they can exist in all three physical states.
