Ionic compounds consist of a positive metal ion
and a negative nonmetal ion combined in a
proportion such that their charges add up to a
net charge of zero.

that will be made from Na and Cl?

It is important, in learning the language of
chemistry, to be able to name and write the
chemical formulas for all ionic compounds.
•The first step is to learn about the ions that
form ionic compounds.
•Some ions, called monatomic ions,
consist of a single atom with a positive or
negative charge resulting from the loss or
gain of one or more valence electrons,
respectively.

Recall that metallic elements tend to lose
valence electrons.

•The names of the cations of Group 1A,
Group 2A, and Group 3A metals are the
same as the name of the metal, followed
by the word ion or cation.
•Thus, Na
+
is the sodium ion (or cation),
Ca
2+
is the calcium ion (or cation), and
Al
3+
is the aluminum ion (or cation).

Nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form
anions, so the charge of a nonmetallic ion is
negative.
•What is the charge of the ion formed
from the phosphorus atom?
•What is the charge of the ion formed
from the fluorine atom?

Anion names start with the stem of the
element name and end in -ide.
•For example, two elements in Group 7A
are fluorine and chlorine. The anions for
these nonmetals are the fluoride ion
(F
–
) and the chloride ion (Cl
–
).

•For cations, the word ion or cation follows the name of
the element.
•Metals that form more than one cation are named by
adding a Roman numeral in parentheses to indicate
the value of the charge after the name of the element,
followed by the word ion.
•Anion names start with the stem of the element name
and end in -ide.
