Naming Binary Compounds

Binary Ionic Compounds (Type I)

1. The cation (positively charged ion; Na^+, Al³⁺) is always named first and the anion (negatively charged ion; Cl^-, O^2-) second.
2. A monatomic (meaning one-atom) cation takes its name from the name of the element.  For example, Na⁺ is called sodium in the names of compounds containing this ion.
3. A monatomic anion is named by taking the root of the element name and adding -ide.  Thus, the Cl^- ion is called chloride, the S^2- ion is called sulfide, and the O^2- ion is called oxide.

Some common monatomic cations and anions are shown below

Cation	Name	Cation	Name		Anion	Name	Anion	Name
H+	Hydrogen	Li+	Lithium		H-	Hydride	F-	Fluoride
Na+	Sodium	K+	Potassium		Cl-	Chloride	Br-	Bromide
Cs+	Cesium	Be2+	Beryllium		I-	Iodide	O2-	Oxide
Mg2+	Magnesium	Ca2+	Calcium		S2-	Sulfide	Se2-	Selenide
Ba2+	Barium	Al3+	Aluminum		N3-	Nitride	P3-	Phosphide
Zn2+	Zinc	Ag+	Silver		As3-	Arsenide	C4-	Carbide
