There is one positive polyatomic ion. It is NH4+and is called the ammonium ion.
Note: Writing just the plus sign or minus sign for ions with +1 or -1 charges is
acceptable.

Binary Compounds of Metals with Fixed Charges
Given Formula, Write the Name
A binary compound is one made of two different elements. There can be one of each element such as in NaCl or KF. There can also be several of each element such as Na2O or AlBr3.
Please remember that all elements involved in this lesson have ONLY ONE charge. That includes BOTHthe cation AND the anion involved in the formula.
Points to remember about naming a compound from its formula
1. The order for names in a binary compound is first the cation, then the anion.
2. Use the name of cation with a fixed oxidation state directly from the periodic table.
3. The name of the anion will be made from the root of the element's name plus the suffix "-ide."
Example 1: Write the name of the following formula: H2S
Step #1 - Look at first element and name it. Result of this step = hydrogen.
Step #2 - Look at second element. Use root of its full name ( which is sulf-) plus the ending "-ide." Result of this step = sulfide.
These two steps give the full name of H2S. Notice that the presence of the subscript is ignored. There are other types of binary compounds where you must pay attention to the subscript. Those compounds involve cations with variable charges. Your teacher will tell you which ones you will be held responsible for.
Example 2: Write the name of the following formula: NaCl
Step #1 - Look at first element and name it. Result of this step = sodium.
Step #2 - Look at second element. Use root of its full name ( which is chlor-) plus the ending "-ide." Result of this step = chloride.
Example 3: Write the name of the following formula: MgBr2
Step #1 - Look at first element and name it. Result of this step = magnesium.
Step #2 - Look at second element. Use root of its full name ( which is brom-) plus the ending "-ide." Result of this step = bromide.
Note the presence of the subscript does not play a role in this name.
Example 4: Write the name of the following formula: KCl
The first part of the name comes from the first element symbol: potassium. The second part of the name comes from the root of the second symbol plus '-ide,' therefore chlor + ide = chloride.
This compound is named potassium chloride
Example 5: Write the name of the following formula: Na2S
First symbol is Na, so the first part of the name is sodium. (Note the presence of the subscript does not play a role in this name.) Second element is sulfur (from the symbol S), so the name is sulf + ide = sulfide.
