Nomenclature• A System of Naming Compounds
• Compounds are two or more atoms of different elements bonded together.
Polyatomic ions
• Poly = Many
• Atomic = having to do with atoms
• ions = having a charge + or –
1. Electric charge is of two types: 1. Electric charge is of two types:
Positive and negative 2. Unlike charges attract and 2. Unlike charges attract and
like charges repel.like charges repel.
+ ++ _
Gilbert Lewis invents a chemistry learning technique.
He used dots to indicate the number of outer (valence) electrons around the atom of that element. He knew these dots would help students figure out how elements would combine.

(Sulfur dioxide SO2) Used as a preservative in wine for its
antibacterial properties, and as a bleaching agent in flour. Sulfur dioxide may be used to fumigate fruit and vegetables to extend their shelf life.

-2sulfite
Occurs naturally in the atmosphere and as a pollutant gas from combustion of fuels with sulfur. Sulfur dioxide is one cause of acid rain.
sulfite -2
(Sulfite) Used to sterilize fermentation equipment and food containers, as well as for its antimicrobial properties. Generally meat, cereals and dairy products may not be treated with it as it destroys thiamine (vitamin B1) content. Over exposure to sulfites in food may cause an asthmatic attack.
1 out 100 people are sensitive to sulfite causing allergic reactions. Some people have died.

Ammonia is created in the body from digestion of proteins and amino acids. If there’s an excess of nitrogen, the body converts it to urea, which is less toxic. Urea is expelled in the urine.
Some babies are born without the enzymes to convert ammonia to urea, so they develop hyperammonemia, which is fatal or will cause brain damage.
Ammonia is formed when animal waste is decomposed by bacteria.

Ammonia added to water will form ammonium hydroxide (cleaning “ammonia”)
Ammonium nitrate: Fertilizer, explosivesAmmonium chloride: conducts electricity inside dry-cell batteries. Also used in cough medicines to hide the taste of bitter tasting medicines. Also used as expectorant.

The nitrite in the blood converts the hemoglobin in red blood cells to methemoglobin (“meta” + hemoglobin)
Metamorphosis (meta + morpho) change+shape
This reduces the ability of the blood to carry oxygen, causing a condition known as methemoglobinemia, or "blue baby syndrome."
High nitrate levels in drinking water can harm infants. Nitrate is converted into nitrite by bacteria that survives in infants’ stomachs.

When hydrogen proton comes off or reacts with something, its electron is left behind. This makes the remaining molecule negatively charged. It then becomes the acetate ion. The negatively charged acetate ion is then attracted to anything positive, such as metals that have lost an electron.

Gas chambers used a pesticide called Zyklon B, which decomposed to HCN. First used in camps to delouse and for Typhus.
Cyanide CN- is found in solution. Hydrogen cyanide HCN is the gas.
The seeds and pits of apricots, cherries, almonds, peaches, and apples contain amygdalin. Inside the intestine bacteria can convert this to cyanide. Under the name of Laetrile, amygdalin has been proposed as a treatment for cancer, but themedical communityhas rejected thisclaim.

Cassava is an important food source for 500 million people, but the roots contain a substance that, when eaten, can trigger the production of cyanide. Only proper cooking can neutralize the substance.
