Chapter 5, Problem 23E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The basic form for the names of oxyacids whose oxyanions end with –ite is to be determined.

Concept Introduction: Oxyacids are the combination of one or more hydrogen ions with an oxyanion. The naming of these acids depends on the ending of the oxyanion.

Which of the following chemical formulas corresponds to an acid? CH3OH, NH3, NHO3, Mg(OH)2
Naming oxoacids Oxoacids contain an oxygen atom in the anion. To name them, again, start with the name of the anion when naming acids. Polyatomic anions are named according to the following rules: • If an element can only form two oxyanions then the one with the least amount of oxygens is given the ending ite. The one containing the most oxygens is given the ending ate. • Elements that can form four polyatomic oxyanions use prefixes in addition to the ite and ate endings. • The oxyanion with the least amount of oxygens is given the prefix hypo and the ending ite (i.e., CIO is hypochlorite). The oxyanion with the second least amount of oxygens is simply given the ite ending (i.e., CIO2 is chlorite). The oxyanion with the second most amount of oxygens is simply given the ate ending (Le., CIO3 is chlorate). Finally, the oxyanion with the most amount of oxygens is given the prefix per and the ending afe (i.e., CIO, is perchlorate). When naming the acid of an oxoanion the endings of the…
