How Big Are Atoms? Five-hundred-million gold atoms lined up side-by-side would form a line as long as a $10 bill.
Look around your home and you’ll be amazed at the variety of chemicals in your cupboards and on your shelves.
In the bathroom, you’ll find water, soap, shampoo, and toothpaste - all chemicals.
In the basement or garage, you may find cleaning products, such as ammonia and bleach, and perhaps painting and gardening products.
In your kitchen, you’ll likely find table salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
Each of these compounds has a chemical name and a chemical formula.
The formula identifies which elements, and how much of each, are in the compound.
So, for example, table salt’s chemical name is sodium chloride and its formula is NaCl.
Baking soda’s chemical name is sodium bicarbonate and its chemical formula is Na(HCO3).
NAMING CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS Until the 18th century, no standardized system existed for naming chemicals. This created confusion because the names for chemical compounds varied from country to country and scientist to scientist.
For example, hydrochloric acid and muriatic acid refer to the same thing. If you didn’t know that, you might think they were two different chemicals. Today, some compounds are better known by their common name. Bleach, for instance, is almost always used instead of the chemical name aqueous sodium hypochlorite.
In 1787, a French chemist named Guyton de Morveau created a naming system, or nomenclature, for compounds. He decided to use the chemical name for each element in the compound, always putting the metal element first. For example, zinc and oxygen combine to form zinc oxide.
Since 1920, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has been the body responsible for agreeing on the appropriate name for every chemical compound discovered.
INTERPRETING CHEMICAL NAMES AND FORMULAS FROM COMPOUNDS
If you know only the formula of a chemical compound, you can determine its chemical name. If you know only its name, you can determine its formula. Table salt’s chemical name, sodium chloride, indicates that the compound is made of one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine Its chemical formula, NaCl, indicates this too.
One sodium atom combines with one chlorine atom to form the compound sodium chloride, which we call table salt
Now look at the formula for the compound water: H2O. Notice that next to the H is a small 2 as a subscript. (“Sub” means below.) The 2 indicates that there are two atoms of hydrogen to go with every atom of oxygen in water. Subscript numbers in a chemical formula indicate the number of atoms of the elements that must combine to form the compound. No subscript number indicates that only one atom of that element is needed.
In water, two hydrogen atoms join with each oxygen atom.

INDICATING THE PHYSICAL STATE OF A COMPOUND Another common notation added to chemical compounds indicates the state of the chemical at room temperature. After the chemical formula, a subscript s for solid, l for liquid, or g for gas is shown in parentheses.
For example, sodium chloride is written as NaCl(s), water is written as H2O(l), and natural gas (methane) is written as CH4(g). For aqueous solutions (substances dissolved in water), a subscript aq in parentheses is added to the formula. So, if sodium chloride was dissolved in water, the resulting aqueous solution would be written as NaCl(aq).
Glucose C6H12O6 (s)
The chemical formula for glucose tells us that each molecule is made of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms, and 6 oxygen atoms and the (s) indicates it is a solid. 24 atoms in all.

Sodium, shown in (a), is a metal. Sodium combines with chlorine gas in a violent reaction (b). The product is table salt, NaCl(s) (c).
Na + Cl 2 → NaCl 2 Na + Cl 2 → 2 NaCl
Sodium chloride is called an ionic compound. Ionic compounds are pure substances formed as a result of the attraction between particles of opposite charges, called ions.
Table salt is formed from positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions.
Other properties of ionic compounds include: their high melting point, good electrical conductivity, and distinct crystal shape.
All ionic compounds are solids at room temperature.
In fact, table salt will not melt until it is heated to 801°C. When an ionic compound is melted or dissolved in water, it will conduct electricity.
This property of ionic compounds led to the study of electrochemical cells (cells that either convert chemical energy into electrical energy or electrical energy into chemical energy). And that work in turn eventually led to the invention of batteries.
“Ion” Origin
The word “ion” comes from a Greek word meaning “to go” or “wander.”
When the ionic compound is dissolved in water, the metal and nonmetal form an aqueous solution of ions. An ion is an atom or a group of atoms that has become electrically charged through the loss or gain of electrons. The following table shows some examples of ion charges for various elements.
Sodium – Ion charge 1 +
Sodium will lose 1 electron Sodium has 1 valence electron Think of it as being able to fill in 1 hole.
Sodium - Na Chlorine Cl
Chlorine – Ion charge 1 – Chlorine gain 1 electrons Chlorine has 7 valence electrons Think of it as having 1 hole.
The crystals in this table salt are held together by ionic bonds.
Ion Charges To indicate ions in written notation, a plus sign (+) or a minus sign (-) is placed to the upper right of the element symbol. This is a superscript position (super - means “above”). For example, a sodium ion is written as Na + and a chlorine ion as Cl -.
Naming Ionic Compounds 1. The chemical name of the metal or positive ion goes first, followed by the name of the non-metal or negative ion. 2. The name of the non-metal negative ion changes its ending to ide.

When non-metals combine, a pure substance called a molecule or a molecular compound is formed.
Molecular compounds differ from ionic compounds in several ways.
They can be solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature. They tend to be insulators, or poor conductors of electricity. They also have relatively low melting and boiling points because the forces between the molecules are weak. Examples of molecular compounds: sugar, acetylene, and water.
Scientists have discovered more than 10 million compounds. At least 9 million are molecular compounds containing the element carbon.
WRITING FORMULAS FOR MOLECULAR COMPOUNDS Writing formulas for molecular compounds is similar to writing formulas for ionic compounds, except that no ions are present and the ion charge is not used in the formulas. This makes it hard to predict how non-metals combine. However, the formulas still clearly show what elements are present, and how many of each type of atom make up the molecule. For example, hydrogen gas is usually found as H2. Each molecule has two atoms of hydrogen connected to each other. For ammonia ( NH3(g) ), the situation is similar. Three hydrogen atoms combine with the nitrogen atom.
Naming of Molecular Compounds
Non-metal + Non-metal 1. The first element in the compound uses the element name
(just like the ionic compounds do). 2. The second element has a suffix – ide (like the ionic compounds).
3. A prefix is used which tells how many atoms there are.
4. Exception to #3 above – when the first element has only 1 atom the prefix mono is not used.
