Writing Formulas for Polyatomic Writing Formulas for Polyatomic CompoundsCompounds
To write a chemical formula for a polyatomic To write a chemical formula for a polyatomic compound, follow these steps:compound, follow these steps:
1. Write the symbols for each substance, with 1. Write the symbols for each substance, with the positive first.the positive first.
2. Write the ionic charge above each symbol.2. Write the ionic charge above each symbol.
3. Add more of the positive or negative ions until 3. Add more of the positive or negative ions until the total charges are balanced.the total charges are balanced.
4. Write the formula using subscripts to indicate 4. Write the formula using subscripts to indicate the number of ions of each type.the number of ions of each type.
For Example – Sodium SulfateFor Example – Sodium Sulfate
Example #2 – Calcium HydroxideExample #2 – Calcium Hydroxide
Naming Polyatomic CompoundsNaming Polyatomic Compounds
To name a polyatomic compound,To name a polyatomic compound,
1. The positive ion is named first1. The positive ion is named first
2. The negative ion is named second. Do 2. The negative ion is named second. Do not change the ending of a polyatomic ion.not change the ending of a polyatomic ion.
For example…For example…
1. Sodium and phosphate1. Sodium and phosphate
2. Na + CO32. Na + CO3
3. K + SO43. K + SO4

Oxygen has a ionic charge of -2 so in total there is -6 as a Oxygen has a ionic charge of -2 so in total there is -6 as a charge for oxygen (3 x -2). Iron needs to match so 2 x (+3) will charge for oxygen (3 x -2). Iron needs to match so 2 x (+3) will match it. Thus the charge for iron MUST be +3match it. Thus the charge for iron MUST be +3

When you are given the name you read the When you are given the name you read the roman numerals to get the ionic charge of the roman numerals to get the ionic charge of the elementelement
Ex. Nickel (II) phosphateEx. Nickel (II) phosphate– Ni has a charge of +2 according to the nameNi has a charge of +2 according to the name– Phosphate has a charge of (-3)Phosphate has a charge of (-3)
– The formula would be NiThe formula would be Ni33(PO(PO44))22
