Does it have a metal and non metal - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Binary Ionic
        
        To name a binary ionic bond first write the name of the metal element, finally write the name of the non-metal element, but change the ending to ide so Al2O3 would be Aluminum oxide.
    - - Is it in a ratio with water H2O
        
        Yes
        
        Hydrate
        
        To name a hydrate first name the metal. Next, name the non-metal but change the ending to ide. Finally, add hydrate to the end with a prefix for the ratio example, CuSO4 * 2H2O would be copper sulphate dihydrate.
        
        No
        
        can it take on more than one charge? (is there a transition metal)
        
        Yes
        
        Multivalent
        
        Name the metal include roman numerals to indicate the valence, finally name the non-metal change the ending to ide example CuO is copper(II) oxide.
        
        No
        
        Polyatomic
        
        to name a polyatomic ion you should look at the IUPAC Names and formula of the polyatomic ions chart, however for N C Cl S P you can name the element that's not oxygen and change the ending to ate, if it has the normal amount of oxygens it should have, for example, NO3 is nitrate if it gained oxygen it would be NO4 pernitrate NO2 would be nitrite and NO1 would be hyponitrite.
- - - - Binary Acid
        
        to name a binary acid you first add the prefix hydro next you name the non-metal but change the suffix to ic lastly add acid to the end for example HCl would be hydrochloric acid
    - - does it releases hydroxide ions
        when dissolved in water or does it have
        a OH in it example NOH
        
        No
        
        does it follow this pattern H elements O
        example HBrO3
        
        Yes
        
        Oxoacids
        
        to name an oxoacid they are for the most part named the same as the oxoanions, for example, BrO4 is perbromate the only change made when it becomes an acid is that the ate ending becomes ic if it had an ite ending it would become ous (note that you keep the prefix the same ex per, hypo) therefore HBrO4 would be perbromic acid
        
        No
        
        Covalent Bond
        
        To name a covalent bond first, write the name of the central atom next add the prefix for the amount of the second atom. Finally, write the name of the second atom with the ending ide so CO2 would be Carbon dioxide, CH4 would be Carbon tetrahydride. However, if the center atom has a subscript we would write the respective prefix, for example, P3O5 is triphosphorus pentoxide because there are 3 phosphorus.
        
        Yes
        
        Base
        
        to name a base all we do is figure out the cation and anion for, example in Na OH the, cation is Na the anion is OH once we know that, we name the cation then, add hydroxide to the end so Na OH would be sodium hydroxide
