Cards Term sodium nitrate Definition NaNO3 Term zinc II sulfite Definition ZnSO3 Term Al2SO3 Definition Aluminum sulfite Term sodium chlorate Definition NaClO3 Term PbCr2O7 Definition lead II dichromate   In this example, lead has an unusual valence of II instead of the expected valence of IV.  Therefore, you must indicate the change with a roman numeral in the name... Term Aluminum acetate Definition Al(C2H3O2)3 Term sodium tetraborate Definition Na2B4O7 Term KNO3 Definition Potassium nitrate Term NaOH Definition sodium hydroxide Term FePO4 Definition Iron III phosphate (must have a roman numeral in the name) Term sodium bicarbonate (also called sodium hydrogen carbonate) Definition NaHCO3 Term Nickel II cyannide Definition Ni(CN)2    don't forget the ( ) around the "CN" Term CuCO3 Definition Copper II carbonate (must have a roman numeral in the name) Term CrPO4 Definition Chromium III phosphate   (must have a roman numeral in the name) Term Ag2CO3 Definition Silver carbonate  or  Silver I carbonate   (The valence of Silver is always I so you don't need a roman numeral in the name this time...) Term CaCO3 Definition Calcium carbonate (also known as limestone) Term Magnesium chlorate Definition Mg(ClO3)2 Term FeCr2O4 Definition Iron II cromate (must have a roman numeral in the name) Term Aluminum arsenate Definition AlAsO4 Term Ca(NO3)2 Definition Calcium nitrate Term HgS Definition Mercury II sulfide (a binary compound) (must have a roman numeral in the name) Term Nickel II hydroxide Definition Ni(OH)2 Term Sodium oxalate Definition NaC2O4 Term Mg(HCO3)2 Definition Magnesium bicarbonate or Magnesium hydrogen carbonate Term Cu(OH)2 Definition Copper II hydroxide Term BaSO4 Definition Barium sulfate Term HgI Definition Mercury I iodide (you need a roman numeral in the name here) Term Chromium III bisulfate Definition Cr(HSO4)3 Term Ammonium acetate Definition NH4C2H3O2 Term Nickel II cyanide Definition Ni(CN)2 (don't forget the paranthesis in this formula!!!) Term CoSO4 Definition Cobalt II sulfate (you need a roman numeral in the name here) Term Na2SO3 Definition Sodium sulfite Term Calcium oxalate Definition CaC2O4 Term Cadmium II nitrate Definition Cd(NO3)2 Term Ammonium perchlorate Definition NH4ClO4 Term Aluminum dichromate Definition Al2(Cr2O7)3 Term NiCrO4 Definition Nickel II chromate (you need a roman numeral in the name here) Term Calcium hydroxide Definition Ca(OH)2 don't forget the ( ) around the OH Term Potassium carbonate Definition K2CO3 Term HgHCO3 Definition Mercury I bicarbonate or Mercury I hydrogen carbonate   (the valence of Mercury is I in this example) Term MnSO4 Definition Manganese II sulfate Term Nickel III hydroxide Definition Ni(OH)3   remember you need () around the hydroxide!!! Term Carbon disulfide  (a binary compound) Definition CS2 Term NiNO3 Definition Nickel I nitrate Term NH4Cl Definition ammonium chloride Term ammonium sulfate Definition (NH4)2SO4 Term Calcium phosphate Definition Ca3(PO4)2 Term KMnO4 Definition Potassium permanganate Term Sodium bicarbonate  (baking soda) Definition NaHCO3 Term Magnesium sulfate  (epsom salts) Definition MgSO4 Term MnSO4 Definition Manganese II sulfate Term Ammonium carbonate Definition (NH4)2CO3 Term FeCO3 Definition Iron II carbonate Term NiBO3 Definition Nickel III borate Term Aluminum chlorate Definition Al(ClO3)3
