KEY CONCEPTS: When naming Binary Acids, start by identifying the hydrogen atom as "hydro" and name the non-metal using the "ic" ending and add the word acid. Rules for Oxy-Acids: They are derivatives of polyatomic ions and polyatomic variations. Follow the following 4 rules: i.) ____ate ions become _______ic acid ii.) per____ate ions become per_____ic acids iii.) ____ite ions become _____ous acids iv.) hypo____ite ions become hypo_____ous acids Bases contain hydroxide ion (OH)-1 **NOTE: NO "hydro" for oxy-acids
