question
Sodium nitrate
answer
NaNO3
question
Zinc II sulfite
answer
ZnSO3
question

Al2SO3

answer
Aluminum sulfite
question
Sodium chlorate
answer
NaClO3
question
PbCr2O7
answer

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...

question
Aluminum acetate
answer
Al(C2H3O2)3
question
Sodium tetraborate
answer
Na2B4O7
question

KNO3

answer
Potassium nitrate
question
NaOH
answer
Sodium hydroxide
question

FePO4

answer
Iron III phosphate (must have a roman numeral in the name)
question
Sodium bicarbonate (also called sodium hydrogen carbonate)
answer
NaHCO3
question
Nickel II cyannide
answer

Ni(CN)2 

 

don't forget the ( ) around the ;CN;

question

CuCO3

answer

Copper II carbonate

(must have a roman numeral in the name)

question
CrPO4
answer

Chromium III phosphate

;

(must have a roman numeral in the name)

question

Ag2CO3

answer

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...)

question

CaCO3

answer
Calcium carbonate (also known as limestone)
question

answer
NH4C2H3O2
question
Nickel II cyanide
answer

Ni(CN)2

(don't forget the paranthesis in this formula!!!)

question

CoSO4

answer

Cobalt II sulfate

(you need a roman numeral in the name here)

question

Na2SO3

answer
Sodium sulfite
question
Calcium oxalate
answer
CaC2O4

(you need a roman numeral in the name here)

question
Calcium hydroxide
answer

Ca(OH)2

don't forget the ( ) around the OH

question
Potassium carbonate
answer
K2CO3
question

answer

Manganese II sulfate

question
Nickel III hydroxide
answer

Ni(OH)3

 

remember you need () around the hydroxide!!!

question
