good site for basic chemistry -

Once you get there, click on "Nomenclature" - fancy name for naming substances.

Go to the Polyatomic ions (metals with a fixed or variable charge).

It gives some instructions and there's a problem very similiar to yours.

is a list of ions including the one you are looking for.
