Naming with Polyatomics
When polyatomic ions combine with metals or nonmetals they form ionic bonds. Therefore the naming system used in compounds containing polyatomics is similar to the naming system for ionic compounds.
7
Naming with polyatomics

Naming with Polyatomics
When a polyatomic is second, name the element and then name the polyatomic. DO NOT use -ide.
Example:
Ca3(PO4)2: Ca is calcium
PO4 is phosphate
Calcium Phosphate

Naming with Polyatomics
When a polyatomic is first in a compound, name the polyatomic and then name the element with the ending -ide.
Example: (NH4)2S
NH4 is Ammonium
S is sulfur
S is last so it becomes Sulfide
Ammonium Sulfide
