Assume that you encounter the following phrases in your reading. What is the chemical formula for each substance mentioned? (a) Sodium Hydrogen carbonate is used as a deodorant. (b) Calcium hypochlorite is used in some bleaching solutions. (c) Hydrogen cyanide is a very poisonous gas. (d) Magnesium hydroxide is used as a cathartic. (e) Tin (II) fluoride has been used as a fluoride additive in toothpastes. (f) When cadmium sulfide is treated with sulfuric acid, fumes of hydrogen sulfide are given off.
Many chemical names are similar at first glance. Give the formulas of the species in each set: (a) Ammonium ion and ammonia (b) Magnesium sulfide, magnesium sulfite, and magnesium sulfate (c) Hydrochloric acid, chloric acid, and chlorous acid (d) Cuprous bromide and cupric bromide
Answer true or false. (a) For Group 1A and Group 2A elements, the name of the ion each form is simply the name of the element followed by the word ion; for example, Mg21 is named magnesium ion. (b) H2 is named hydride ion. (c) The nucleus of H1 consists of one proton and one neutron. (d) Many transition and inner transition elements form more than one positively charged ion. (e) In naming metal cations with two different charges, the suffix -ous refers to the ion with a charge of 11 and -ic refers to the ion with a charge of 12. (f) Fe31 may be named either iron (III) ion or ferric ion. (g) The anion derived from a bromine atom is named bromine ion. (h) The anion derived from an oxygen atom is named oxide ion. (i) HCO3 2 is named hydrogen carbonate ion. (j) The prefix bi- in the name “bicarbonate” ion indicates that this ion has a charge of 22. (k) The hydrogen phosphate ion has a charge of 11, and the dihydrogen phosphate ion has a charge of 12. (l) The phosphate ion is PO3 42. (m)…
