Concept introduction:
The formula of an ionic compound represents the total number of ions of each element present in it.
The general rules for writing the systematic names of ionic compounds are as follows:
1) In binary ionic compounds, the name of the metal is written as the original name whereas the name of the non-metal has the root word with the suffix
2) In metals that form more than one ion, the Latin root of the metal is followed by a suffix
3) In the family of two oxoanions, the ion with more oxygen atoms has the non-metal root and a suffix
4) For hydrated ionic compounds, the total number of water molecules are represented by the Greek numerical prefixes followed by the word hydrate.

- Determine if the following salt is neutral, acidic or basic. If acidic or basic, write the appropriate equilibrium equation for the acid or base that exists when the salt is dissolved in aqueous solution. If neutral, simply write only NR.

Next, record any regiochemistry or stereochemistry considerations relevant to the reaction. You should also record any key aspects of the mechanism, such as forma- tion of an important intermediate, as a helpful reminder. You may want to keep track of all reactions that make carbon-carbon bonds, because these help you build large molecules from smaller fragments.
