simple rules for naming ionic compounds

Naming of Simple Compounds - Compounds formed by the combination of two different elements are called binary compounds. Example: CO, CCl 4 , H 2 S, NaCl, NH 3 , HBr. Binary compounds may be ionic or molecul..

Simple and Compound Leaves - A leaf, in which the lamina is a single blade, is described as a simple leaf. It may be entire as in Mango or lobed as in Cotton. A compound leaf is one whose lamina is split into one or more distinct segments, called leaflets. Th..

The electrostatic field of an ion is nondirectional.Each positive ion attracts several negative ions around it depending upon its size or radius and vice-versa ,resulting in a three dimensional solid aggregate called an ionic crystal in which oppositely charged ions alternate in regular,..

With the large growth of carbon compounds, it was necessary to name these compounds in a more systematic way. A committee called the 'International Union for Pure and Applied Chemistry' (IUPAC) put forward a system of giving proper scientific names to carbon..

Compounds containing three elements (ternary compounds), one of which is oxygen are named with suffix ate at the end, provided there is only one such compound. If there are two compounds, the one with more oxygen is named with the suffix ..

Nomenclature of Carbon Compounds - "Nomenclature is the system of assigning a proper name to a particular carbon compound on the basis of certain rules." Most of the carbon compounds have two types of names: Trivial Names IUPAC h..
