Polyatomic Ion Song Lyrics (tune of What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction)
Ammonium is NH4
It's the only one that is positive
Now comes the chlorines, ClO
That is hypochlorite (1), rite(2), rate(3) and perchlorate(4)
Don't forget we're on negative one
OH is hydroxide
Let's move on towards NO2 and NO3
They are nitrite and nitrate respectively
CN is cynanide and MnO4 is permanganate
Let's memorize the ions
HSO4 is bisulfate
Dihydrogen phosphate H2PO4
Bicarbonate is HCO3
and acetate is C2H3O2
don't forget it's minus one
Now minus two, here's what to do
CO3 minus two is carbonate
CrO4 is called chromate
Now dichromate is Cr2O7
Don't forget we're on negative two
O2 is peroxide
Let's move on towards SO3 and SO4
They are sulfite and sulfate
Now here's the last minus two HPO4
That's hydrogen phosphate
Yeah
Now it's PO3 and Po4
They are phosphite and phosphate
These last two ions were minus three
I hoped this helped you out
I really hope it helped you
There's nothing more that I can do
