Naming Binary Ionic Compounds -			(only 2 kinds of elements)
	cation (+)	name used?	anion     (-)	name used?
Type I
metal with non-metal	metal, ions can only have one charge value (Gp 1, 2 & 3 elements plus transition elements with only one charge value)	name of metal	non-metal	name of non-metal with -ide suffix
Type II
metal with non-metal	metal, ions can have more than one charge value (transition elements)	name of metal with Roman numeral of charge	non-metal	name of non-metal with -ide suffix
Naming 2 ion compounds with polyatomic anions
	cation (+)	name used?	anion     (-)	name used?
Type I
metal with non-metal	metal, ions can only have one charge value (Gp 1, 2 & 3 elements plus transition elements with only one charge value)	name of metal	polyatomic	use name of ion
Type II
metal with non-metal	metal, ions can have more than one charge value (usually transition elements)	name of metal with Roman numeral of charge	polyatomic	use name of ion
Type I & II always have a metal for the positive ion (cation)
