Genecks Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I'm trying to understand the nomenclature of oxyanions, but I don't understand how I can look at the periodic table and tell which oxyanion has an -ite or -ate suffix. How do I figure it out? Is there some kind of pattern? I don't see much information on the web about this. I have a hunch it has something to do with orbitals, but I'm not sure.
