3. Naming and Formula Writing for Type I Binary Compounds. [Prerequisite reading Sec. 4.1] Compounds consisting of two elements are called binary compounds. For example, aluminum oxide (Al2O3) consists of two elements, aluminum and oxygen, and is thus a binary compound. Binary compounds consisting of a metal that can only form one type of cation and a nonmetal are called Type I binary compounds; binary compounds containing metal ions that can form two or more types of cations with different charges are called Type II binary compounds. Since Type I and Type II compounds all consist of a metals plus nonmetals, Type I and Type II compounds are all ionic compounds. Elements in Group I on the periodic table can only form 1+ ions, and elements in Group II can only form 2+ ions. Additionally, zinc can only form a 2+ ion, silver can only form a 1+ ion, and cadmium can only form a 2+ ion. Group I ions, Group II ions, and zinc, silver, and cadmium ions are the ions found in Type I binary compounds, since each can only from one type of ion. a.

Chemistry Worksheet Binary Compounds 4. Naming and Formula Writing for Type II Binary Compounds. [Prerequisite reading Sec. 4.1] Type II binary compounds consist of metal ions that can form more than one type of cation, along with nonmetals. For example, iron atoms can form ions that have two different charges Fe 2+ and Fe 3+. Thus FeCl2, also known as iron(ii) chloride, and FeCl3, also known as iron(iii) chloride, are Type II binary compounds. The Roman numerals in the names simply stand for the charges of the ions. Iron(II) is the Fe 2+ ion, and iron(iii) is the Fe 3+ ion. The Roman numerals, and thus the charges, must be included in the names for Type II binary compounds to communicate which of the possible ions is present in the compound. Calling either of the above compounds iron chloride would be incorrect because there would be no way of knowing if the iron present is in the 2+ or 3+ form. a. Write the formulas for the following Type II binary compounds.

5. Naming and Formula Writing for Type III Binary Compounds. [Prerequisite reading Sec. 4.1] Type III binary compounds contain only two elements, but both elements are nonmetals. Whereas Type I and Type II binary compounds are ionic compounds consisting of formula units, Type III are covalent compounds consisting of molecules. Because a given pair of nonmetals frequently can combine in multiple ways to form different molecules, these molecules, and thus the compounds they compose, are named using Greek prefixes. For example, nitrogen and oxygen can combine in four different ways: NO, N2O, NO2, and N2O4. The names for these molecules and their compounds are nitrogen monoxide, dinitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and dinitrogen tetroxide respectively. a. Name the following Type I binary compounds (see the text for rules!) Formula Name Formula Name CO CO2 PCl3 SF6 N2O4 NF3 P4O10 Cl2O SO2 SO3 a.
