Naming Binary Ionic Compounds

What is the key to identifying a binary ionic compound?

• Looking for elements in the same group

• Finding both elements on the periodic table

• Ensuring both elements are non-metals

• Checking if both elements are metals

What type of compound is formed when a metal and a non-metal combine?

• Organic compound

• Metallic compound

• Ionic compound

• Covalent compound

How do you name the non-metal in a binary ionic compound?

• Keep the original name

• Add 'ide' to the end

• Add 'ine' to the end

• Add 'ate' to the end

What is the correct name for the compound CaCl2?

• Calcium chlorite

• Calcium chlorate

• Calcium chloride

• Calcium chlorine

What is the correct name for the compound AlN?

• Aluminum nitrogen

• Aluminum nitrate

• Aluminum nitride

• Aluminum nitrite

When naming binary ionic compounds, how should the metal be written?

• With an 'ine' ending

• With an 'ate' ending

• As it appears on the periodic table

• With an 'ide' ending

What is the name of the compound Na2O?

• Sodium oxide

What additional step is needed when naming compounds with transition metals?

• Adding 'ate' to the non-metal

• Adding 'ine' to the non-metal

• Specifying the metal's oxidation state

• Specifying the non-metal's oxidation state
