NAMING & FORMULA WRITING
Examine the number of valence electrons for each atom:
What do you notice?
IONS AND THEIR CHARGES
TREND:
-Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons
-Thus elements in the same group have similar reactivity
Examine the number of valence
electrons for each atom:
Example:
All alkali
metals
have one
valence
electron
IONS AND THEIR CHARGES
- Elements become stable by achieving 8 valence electrons (except for
hydrogen and helium, which achieve 2 electrons)
- Noble gases are non-reactive because they have 8 electrons
- This is called the Octet Rule
The number of valence
electrons can determine
reactivity:
IONS AND THEIR CHARGES
How many valence electrons
does each atom need to gain or
lose to achieve a full octet?
Alkali metals

electron
Alkali earth
metals lose 2
electrons
Group 13

IONS AND THEIR CHARGES
How many valence electrons

NAMING…
• Name both elements (change the
ending of the element on the right
to “ide”
• Put prefixes in front of the element
• Eliminate the prefix “mono” if it is
attached to the first element (the
element on the left)
WRITING THE FORMULA…
• Write the symbols of the elements
• Convert the prefixes to subscripts
MOLECULAR COMPOUNDSNON-METAL + NON-METAL
Prefixes

Writing the name: PCl5
MOLECULAR COMPOUNDSNON-METAL + NON-METAL
phosphorus chlorine
ide
chloride

RULE #3: Eliminate the prefix “mono” if it is
attached to the first element (the element on the
left)
= phosphorus pentachloride
Writing the formula: sulfur tetroxide
MOLECULAR COMPOUNDSNON-METAL + NON-METAL
S O1 4
= SO4
Notice how “tetroxide” is NOT spelt as tetraoxide. The “a”
in the prefix is eliminated when its followed by an “o”
