#Memorize the periodic table. In order to remember the names of ions, you will need to remember the names of the elements that form them. Commit the periodic table to memory, and you will have a much easier time naming ions.

#*It's fine to consult the periodic table if you can't remember the name for an element.

#Remember to add the word ion. In order to distinguish an ion from an atom, you must use the word ion at the end of the name.<ref>http://faculty.lacitycollege.edu/boanta/paperwork/iontable.htm</ref>

#Use element names for positive ions. The simplest ions to name are positively charged monoatomic ions with single oxidation states. These simply take the same name as the element that forms them.<ref>http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch2/names.html</ref>

#*For example, the name for the element Na is sodium, so the name for Na+ is sodium ion.

#*Positively charged ions are also known as cations.

#Add the -ide suffix for negative ions. Monoatomic ions with a negative charge and a single oxidation state are named using the stem form of the element name, with the addition of the suffix -ide.<ref~~>http:~~/~~/chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch2/names.html</ref~~>

#Add the -ide suffix for negative ions. Monoatomic ions with a negative charge and a single oxidation state are named using the stem form of the element name, with the addition of the suffix -ide.<ref name="rf2" />

#*For example, the name for the element O2 is oxygen, so the name for O2- is oxide ion. The name for the element F is fluorine, so the name for F- is flouride ion.

#*Negatively charged ion are also known as anions.

=== Naming a Monoatomic Ion With Multiple Oxidation States ===

#Know which ions can have more than one oxidation state. The oxidation state of an ion simply means how many electrons it gains or loses. Most transition metals, which are grouped together in the periodic table of elements, have more than one oxidation state.<ref>http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/Inorganic_Chemistry/Descriptive_Chemistry/Elements_Organized_by_Block/3_d-Block_Elements/1b_Properties_of_Transition_Metals/Electron_Configuration_of_Transition_Metals/Oxidation_States_of_Transition_Metals</ref>

#Know which ions can have more than one oxidation state. The oxidation state of an ion simply means how many electrons it gains or loses. Most transition metals, which are grouped together in the periodic table of elements, have more than one oxidation state.<ref name="rf3">http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/Inorganic_Chemistry/Descriptive_Chemistry/Elements_Organized_by_Block/3_d-Block_Elements/1b_Properties_of_Transition_Metals/Electron_Configuration_of_Transition_Metals/Oxidation_States_of_Transition_Metals</ref>

#*The oxidation state of an ion is equal to its charge, which is the number of electrons the ion has.

#*Scandium and zinc are the only two transition metals that do not have more than one oxidation state.

−

#Use the roman numeral system. The most common way to indicate the oxidation state of an ion is to use roman numeral in parentheses to indicate the charge.<ref>https://www.boundless.com/chemistry/textbooks/boundless-chemistry-textbook/atoms-molecules-and-ions-2/naming-compounds-38/naming-ionic-compounds-212-1020/</ref>

#*Continue to use the element name as you would for any positive ion. For example, Fe2+ is called iron (II) ion.

#Be familiar with the old system. While the roman numeral system is more common today, you may encounter the older naming system, especially on labels. This system adds the suffix -ous to the ion with the lower positive charge, and the suffix -ic to the ion with the higher positive charge.<ref>http://www.800mainstreet.com/4/0004-008-Namingions.html</ref>

#Be familiar with the old system. While the roman numeral system is more common today, you may encounter the older naming system, especially on labels. This system adds the suffix -ous to the ion with the lower positive charge, and the suffix -ic to the ion with the higher positive charge.<ref name="rf6">http://www.800mainstreet.com/4/0004-008-Namingions.html</ref>

#*The suffixes -ous and -ic are relative, which means they do not correspond directly to numbers. For example, iron (II) ion would be called ferrous ion using the old system, and iron (III) ion would be called ferric ion, because iron (II) has a lower positive charge than iron (III). Similarly, copper (I) ion would be called cuprous ion and copper (II) ion would be called cupric ion because copper (I) has a lower positive charge than copper (II).

#*This system does not work well for ions that can have more than two possible charges, which is why the roman numeral system is preferred.

=== Naming a Polyatomic Ion ===

#Understand what a polyatomic ion is. Polyatomic ions are simply ions that contain more than one type of element. These are distinct from ionic compounds, which are formed when positively charged ions bond with negatively charged ions.<ref>http://study.com/academy/lesson/what-are-ionic-reactions-definition-examples.html</ref>

#*Common polyatomic ions include bicarbonate ion (HCO3-), hydrogen sulfate ion or bisulfate ion (HSO4-), acetate ion (CH3CO2-), perchlorate ion (ClO4-), nitrate ion (NO3-), chlorate ion (ClO3-), nitrite ion (NO2-), chlorite ion (ClO2-), permanganate ion (MnO4-), hypochlorite ion (ClO-), cyanide ion (CN-), hydroxide ion (OH-), carbonate ion (CO32-), peroxide ion (O22-), sulfate ion (SO42-), chromate ion (CrO42-), sulfite ion (SO32-), dichromate ion (Cr2O72-), thiosulfate ion (S2O32-), hydrogen phosphate ion (HPO42-), phosphate ion (PO43-), arsenate ion (AsO43-), and borate ion (BO33-)

#Learn the pattern for negatively charged polyatomic atoms. Although complex, there is a pattern to the naming system for negatively charged polyatomic ions (or polyatomic anions). Once you understand the pattern, you will be able to name any ion.<ref~~>http:~~/~~/chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch2/names.html</ref~~>

#*Use the -ate suffix to indicate a high oxidation state. For example, the NO3- ion is the nitrate ion.
