Download Naming - Don`t Trust Atoms

Atoms, Elements, Compounds, and
Mixtures Quiz
• Draw and name an example of each of the
following:
– Atom
– Element
– Compound
– Mixture
• Explain briefly what each of them are
(definition) in your own words.
Naming Simple Molecules
Metal + Non-Metal
1. First word: Write out the full name of the first
element (metal) of the chemical formula.
2. Second word: Write out the root of the second
element (non-metal) and add –ide to the end.
Numbers do NOT matter!
Example: MgO = magnesium oxide
CaF2 = calcium fluoride
Name that Compound!
Chemical Formula
• NaCl
• CuO
• KBr
• CaCl2
• ZnS
Name
1. Sodium Chloride
2. Copper Oxide
3. Potassium Bromide
4. Calcium Chloride
5. Zinc Sulphide
Naming Simple Molecules
Non-Metal + Non-Metal
1. First word: Prefix (unless its 1) + Write out the
full name of the first element of the chemical
formula.
2. Second word:
a. Look at the number of atoms and write the
correct prefix.
b. Write out the root of the second element and
add –ide to the end.
Example: CO2 = carbon dioxide
