Binary Ionic Compounds
• Binary ionic compounds
contain positive cations
and negative anions.
Type I compounds
• Metal present forms only
one cation.
Type II compounds
• Metal present can form 2
or more cations with
different charges.
Rules for Naming Type I Ionic Compounds
• Examples:
KCl Potassium chloride
a) strontium bromine
b) sulfur bromide
c) strontium dibromide
d) strontium bromide
Binary Ionic Compounds (Type II)
• Metals in these
compounds can form
more than one type of
positive charge.
• Charge on the metal ion
must be specified.
• Roman numeral
indicates the charge of
the metal cation.
• Transition metal cations
usually require a Roman
numeral.
Type II Compounds
• Examples:
CuBr Copper(I) bromide
a) chromium oxide
b) chromium(II) oxide
c) chromium(IV) oxide
d) chromium dioxide
