Question

naming chemicals: nomenclature binary ionic compounds ionic bond: bond formed by attraction between ____ and __ ions binary ionic compound: compound containing __ elements - one __ and one __. cation + anion → ionic compound these compounds have __ elements (__) and a __ & a __ (__) to name these compounds, write the name of the __ (__). write the name of the __ (__) with the suffix ____.

Explanation:

• Ionic bond: An ionic bond is formed by the attraction between cations (positively - charged ions) and anions (negatively - charged ions).
• Binary Ionic Compound: A binary ionic compound contains two elements. One is a metal (which forms cations) and the other is a non - metal (which forms anions).
• Naming: When naming binary ionic compounds, we first write the name of the cation (metal). Then we write the name of the anion (non - metal) with the suffix “-ide”.

Answer:

1. cation; anion
2. two; metal; non - metal
3. two; metal and non - metal; cation; anion; metal and non - metal
4. cation; metal; anion; non - metal; -ide
