A. Write the correct formula for the following:
1.
Copper(II) phosphate
- Copper(II) means Cu²⁺
- Phosphate is PO₄³⁻
- To balance charges: need 3 Cu²⁺ (total +6) and 2 PO₄³⁻ (total -6)
→
Cu₃(PO₄)₂
2.
Nitric acid
- Nitric acid is HNO₃
→
HNO₃
3.
Silver nitrate
- Silver is Ag⁺, nitrate is NO₃⁻
→
AgNO₃
4.
Aluminum hydroxide
- Aluminum is Al³⁺, hydroxide is OH⁻
- Need 3 OH⁻ to balance Al³⁺
→
Al(OH)₃
5.
Sulfuric acid
- Sulfuric acid is H₂SO₄
→
H₂SO₄
6.
Copper(II) sulfate
- Copper(II) = Cu²⁺, sulfate = SO₄²⁻
→
CuSO₄
---
B. Write the correct name for the following:
1.
MgCl₂
- Magnesium ion = Mg²⁺, chloride = Cl⁻
→
Magnesium chloride
2.
Na₂O
- Sodium = Na⁺, oxide = O²⁻
→
Sodium oxide
3.
Pb(NO₃)₂
- Lead(II) because Pb²⁺ (since two NO₃⁻ ions), nitrate = NO₃⁻
→
Lead(II) nitrate
4.
Al(NO₃)₃
- Aluminum = Al³⁺, nitrate = NO₃⁻
→
Aluminum nitrate
5.
P₂O₅
- Covalent compound: phosphorus pentoxide
→
Diphosphorus pentoxide
*(Note: Common name is phosphorus pentoxide, but systematic name is diphosphorus pentoxide)*
6.
Ca(OH)₂
- Calcium = Ca²⁺, hydroxide = OH⁻
→
Calcium hydroxide
---
C. Correctly name the following as acids:
1.
H₂SO₄
- Sulfuric acid (polyatomic ion: sulfate)
→
Sulfuric acid
2.
HCl
- Hydrochloric acid (hydrogen + chlorine)
→
Hydrochloric acid
3.
H₂CO₃
- Carbonic acid (carbonate ion)
→
Carbonic acid
4.
H₃PO₄
- Phosphoric acid (phosphate ion)
→
Phosphoric acid
5.
HNO₃
- Nitric acid (nitrate ion)
→
Nitric acid
6.
HBr
- Hydrobromic acid (hydrogen + bromine)
→
Hydrobromic acid
---
D. Write the correct formula for the following acids:
1.
Nitric acid
→
HNO₃
2.
Hydrofluoric acid
- Hydrogen + fluoride → HF
→
HF
3.
Hydrochloric acid
→
HCl
4.
Sulfuric acid
→
H₂SO₄
5.
Bromic acid
- Bromate ion is BrO₃⁻ → HBrO₃
→
HBrO₃
6.
Cyanic acid
- Cyanate ion is OCN⁻ → HOCN or HOCN
→
HOCN (or sometimes written as HOCN)
> Note: Cyanic acid is H–O–C≡N. It's a weak acid derived from cyanate ion.
