Polyatomic Compounds
Polyatomic compounds are pure substance that involve combinations of polyatomic ions with metals, hydrogen, and other polyatomic ions. metal + poly.ion = hydrogen + poly.ion = poly.cmpd poly.ion + poly.ion = Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms that tend to stay together and carry an overall charge.
When a polyatomic compound is mixed with water the metal separates from the polyatomic ion.
Writing Formulas for Polyatomic Compounds
(Use handout: Common Polyatomic Ions and Compounds)
• Write the symbols
• Find the ionic charges
• Crisscross the charges (no need for the subscript 1)
• Reduce to lowest terms ***caution*** Examples: Sodium sulfate Lead (IV) carbonate Na
+1(SO4)
-2 Pb
+4(CO3)
-2
Na2(SO4) Pb2(CO3)4
Pb(CO3)2 (reduced)

Writing Names for Polyatomic Compounds
• Name of metal / polyatomic ion / hydrogen
• Name of polyatomic ion
Typically, it is the positively cation followed by the negatively charged polyatomic anion.
Oxyacids
Oxyacids are compounds formed when hydrogen combines whith polyatomic ions that contain oxygen.
Examples: Nitric acid HNO3
Nitrous acid HNO2 Chloric acid HClO3 Carbonic acid H2CO3 Sulfuric acid H2SO4 Sulfurous acid H2SO3 Phosphoric acid H3PO4
