CHAPTER 7: CHEMICAL FORMULAS AND CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS

The following pages contain the bulk (but not all) of the information for the chapter 7 test.
Focus on this content, but make sure to review class notes, activities, handouts, questions, etc.
If you study this document and NOTHING else, you should at least be able to PASS the test.
***** Test items will be recall, examples, and/or application of this content. *****

the positive and negative ions.
o The old system of naming binary molecular
compounds uses prefixes. The new system,
known as the Stock system, uses oxidation
numbers.
7.2: OXIDATION NUMBERS
· Vocabulary
o oxidation number -- the number of
electrons that must be added to or removed
from an atom in a combined state to convert
the atom into the elemental form
o oxidation state -- the condition of an atom
expressed by the number of electrons that
the atom needs to reach its elemental form
· Chapter Highlights
o Oxidation numbers are useful in naming
compounds, in writing formulas, and in
balancing chemical equations.
o Compounds containing elements that have
more than one oxidation state are named by
using the Stock system.
