This chapter provides guidance on differentiating between acids and bases, including naming conventions for ions in molecules. Learn to identify and name various bases and acids using helpful rules and examples. Fill in the provided tables to reinforce understanding.

In this chapter, the clue that it is a base is the presence of the hydroxide ion (OH-). • The following are therefore bases: • LiOH • Mg(OH)2 • NH4OH • Sn(OH)4 • CuOH
To name a Base, just use the rules we learned for naming Binary Ionic Compounds. • ***Be careful if there is a Transition Metal in the molecule! You must use Roman Numerals to show the charge of the T.M.! • Examples:
Acids: • To Name an Acid, first you must look at the ANION in the molecule. • H2S The Anion is S2- which is called Sulfide • H2SO3 The Anion is SO32- which is called Sulfite • HNO3 The Anion is NO3- which is called Nitrate
After identifying the Anion, the next step is to name the acid using the rules below. • A TYPE 1 Acid has an Anion that ends in ide. IT WILL HAVE HYDRO and IC IN THE NAME. • For example, H2S will be Hydrosulfuric Acid. • A TYPE 2 Acid has an Anion that ends in ite. IT WILL HAVE –OUS IN THE NAME. • For example, H2SO3 will be Sulfurous Acid. • A TYPE 3 Acid has an Anion that ends in ate. IT WILL HAVE IC IN THE NAME. • For example, HNO3 will be Nitric Acid.
