Writing and Naming Ionic Compounds
General Chemistry 1
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
Everyone is familiar
with salt—whether it
is rock salt, sea salt, or
iodized salt. It is an
important commodity
in cooking and baking.
2
Typically, salt is
associated with the
chemical compound
sodium chloride.
Although it is true that
sodium chloride is
indeed an example of
salt, it is not the only
salt there is.
3
You have learned from
previous lessons that
ions are charged
species formed when
atoms lose or gain
electrons.
4
In this lesson, you will learn that positively-charged cations
can combine with negatively-charged anions to form ionic
compounds. You will also learn how to write the formula
and provide the names of these ionic compounds.

Formation of Ionic Compounds
Ionic Compounds
● compounds that are made of cations and anions
assembled together in a crystal lattice
● The bond that holds these ions together in the lattice
is called the ionic bond.
12
Formation of Ionic Compounds
Ionic Bond
● Ionic bonds are formed when there is an electron
transfer between two or more atoms.
● These are stabilized by electrostatic forces of attraction
between the positively-charged cation and the
negatively-charged anion.
13
Formation of Ionic Compounds
When a sodium
atom loses one
electron in its
valence shell which is
transferred to the
valence shell of a
chlorine atom.
14
Formation of Ionic Compounds
As a result, sodium
chloride is formed,
and an ionic bond is
formed between the
positively-charged
sodium ion and the
negatively-charged
chloride ion.
