Concept Introduction:
Cations are named using the name of the element that is followed by the word “ion”. In case of the elements that has more than one cation possibility, the oxidation number is shown using Roman numeral in parenthesis.
Anions are named by adding suffix –ide that is followed by the word “ion”. This is applicable for monoatomic anions. If the anion is a polyatomic one that contains oxygen atom, it is known as oxoanions and it is named by adding suffix –ate to the name of the element which is the stem.
- Ions that have more number of oxygen atoms are named using the suffix –ate.
- Ions that have less number of oxygen atoms are named using the suffix –ite.
If an oxoanion contains halogen atom, then the name of the oxoanion is named considering the number of oxygen atoms present in it.
- If the oxoanion contains less number of oxygen atoms with halogen atom, then prefix hypo- is added to the –ite form of the name of oxoanion.
- If the oxoanion contains more number of oxygen atoms with halogen atom, then prefix per- is added to the –ate form of the name of oxoanion.
If the polyatomic anion contains hydrogen atom, then it is named by considering the number of hydrogen atoms present in it. If one hydrogen atom is present, the anion is named beginning with “hydrogen” and if two hydrogen atoms are present, then the anion is named beginning with “dihydrogen”.

- 4-102 Aspartame, an artificial sweetener used as a sugar substitute in some foods and beverages, has the molecular formula C14H18N2O5. (a) How many mg of aspartame are present in 3.72 × 1026 molecules of aspartame? (b) Imagine you obtain 25.0 mL of aspartame, which is known to have a density of 1.35 g/mL. How many molecules of aspartame are present in this volume? (c) How many hydrogen atoms are present in 1.00 mg of aspartame? (d) Complete the skeletal structure of aspartame, where all the bonded atoms are shown but double bonds, triple bonds, and/or lone pairs are missing. (e) Identify the various types of geometries present in each central atom of aspartame using VSEPR theory. (f) Determine the various relative bond angles associated with each central atom of aspartame using VSEPR theory. (g) What is the most polar bond in aspartame? (h) Would you predict aspartame to be polar or nonpolar? (i) Is aspartame expected to possess resonance? Explain why or why not. (j) Consider the combustion of aspartame, which results in formation of NO2(g) as well as other expected products. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. (k) Calculate the weight of C02(g) that can be prepared from 1.62 g of aspartame mixed with 2.11 g of oxygen gas.arrow_forwardIs the decomposition of CuSO4· 5 H2O a physical or a chemical change?
