Chemical Practice
Using ion models to determine chemical formulas
![Page 2: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
How do the models work?• Designed to show electron movement.
• POSITIVE ions are trying to lose electrons so the model has an “arrow” showing electrons leaving.
• NEGATIVE ions are trying to gain electrons so the model can “accept” electrons.
+1 Arrow shows one electron
leaving
-2
Spaces show how many
electrons the ion is trying to gain

EXAMPLES:Potassium (K) and Chlorine (Cl)
**Write the ions first.K+1 Cl-1
**Find the puzzle pieces representing each ion.
**One molecule of the compound is whatever it takes to complete the puzzle.
One of each element makes up the compound.
**Write the compound formula:
KCl
+1 -1

Magnesium (Mg) and Chlorine (Cl)• Find the ions:• Find ion models:
• Put puzzle pieces together to find ONE molecule of compound:
• Write the formula:
Mg+2 Cl-1
MgCl2
+2-1
+2-1
-1One

Another way to determine the formula …
• Write the ions in order: POSITIVE ion before NEGATIVE ion.
Mg+2 Cl-1
• Cross over just the numbers of the charge.
Mg+2 Cl-1
Mg1Cl2
• And, since the “1” is understood: MgCl2

Hydrogen (H) and Phosphate (PO4)
• PO4 polyatomic ion{These can be found on the back
of your periodic table.}
• Find each ion:• Put ion pieces
together:• NOTE: You can only
use the ions that make up the compound.
• Write the formula:
Polyatomic ion = ion made of more than one atom
H+1 PO4-3
H3PO4
-3
+1
+1
+1

Again, you could determine the formula using the cross-over formula …
• Write the ions in positive negative order.
H+1 PO4-3
• Cross over just the numbers of the charges.
H+1 PO4-3
H3PO41
• Again, the “1” is understood and should not be included in the formula: H3PO4
![Page 8: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
NH4+1 PO4
-3
Ammonium (NH4) and Phosphate (PO4)
• Write the ions:• Combine the puzzle
pieces:
• How do you write more than one polyatomic ion?
• Write compound formula:
-3
+1
+1
+1
•Use parenthesis to show more than one polyatomic ion in a compound.
(NH4)3PO4
![Page 9: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
You could also use the cross-over method for finding the formula:
• Write the ions in positive negative order.
NH4+1 PO4
-3
• Cross over just the numbers of the charges.
NH4+1 PO4
-3
(NH4)3PO41
• Again, the “1” is understood and should not be included in the formula: (NH4)3PO4

Aluminum (Al) and Sulfate (SO4)
• Write the ions:• Combine the puzzle
pieces:
• Remember that you can only use the ions that are part of the compound.
• Write the formula:
Al+3 SO4-2
+3 -2
+3
-2
-2
Al2(SO4)3
![Page 11: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Again, you could use the cross-over method for finding the formula:• Write the ions in positive negative
order:
Al+3 SO4-2
• Cross over just the numbers of the charges.
Al+3 SO4-2
Al2(SO4)3
![Page 12: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Calcium (Ca) and Sulfate (SO4)
• Write the ions:• Combine the puzzle
pieces:
• Notice that the molecule is complete with one of each ion.
• Write the formula:
Ca+2 SO4-2
+2 -2
CaSO4
![Page 13: Chemical Practice Using ion models to determine chemical formulas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082506/56649ed35503460f94be3a4e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What if you use the cross-over method?
• Write the ions in positive negative order:
Ca+2 SO4-2
• If you cross over just the numbers, you would have this formula: Ca2(SO4)2, but remember Ca is losing 2 electrons to sulfate so this doesn’t make sense.
• If the numbers on the charge are identical, you will only need one of each: CaSO4
