Name of
Concept Introduction:
Cations are named using the name of the element that is followed by the word “ion”. In case of the elements that has more than one cation possibility, the oxidation number is shown using Roman numeral in parenthesis.
Anions are named by adding suffix –ide that is followed by the word “ion”. This is applicable for monoatomic anions. If the anion is a polyatomic one that contains oxygen atom, it is known as oxoanions and it is named by adding suffix –ate to the name of the element which is the stem.
- Ions that have more number of oxygen atoms are named using the suffix –ate.
- Ions that have less number of oxygen atoms are named using the suffix –ite.
If an oxoanion contains halogen atom, then the name of the oxoanion is named considering the number of oxygen atoms present in it.
- If the oxoanion contains less number of oxygen atoms with halogen atom, then prefix hypo- is added to the –ite form of the name of oxoanion.
- If the oxoanion contains more number of oxygen atoms with halogen atom, then prefix per- is added to the –ate form of the name of oxoanion.
If the polyatomic anion contains hydrogen atom, then it is named by considering the number of hydrogen atoms present in it. If one hydrogen atom is present, the anion is named beginning with “hydrogen” and if two hydrogen atoms are present, then the anion is named beginning with “dihydrogen”.

Interpretation:
Formula of hydrogen sulfite ion has to be written.

- The carbon dioxide exhaled in the breath of astronauts is often removed from the spacecraft by reaction with lithium hydroxide 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) Estimate the grams of lithium hydroxide required per astronaut per day. Assume that each astronaut requires 2.50 103 kcal of energy per day. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 2.50 103 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of CO2 produced and hence the amount of LiOH required. The H for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardThe present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forward4-102 Aspartame, an artificial sweetener used as a sugar substitute in some foods and beverages, has the molecular formula C14H18N2O5.
