Naming and Writing Formulas for Simple and Complex Ionic Compounds

In this ions in chemical formulas worksheet, students are given 10 sets of ions to combine to form the proper chemical formula. They are given 10 formulas and they write the symbols of the ions in the compound and the number of each ion...

Here is a unique assigment: compare and contrast ionic and covalent compounds in an extensive data table and then analyze Lewis dot structures in antoher. Three columns are to befilled in: "characteristic or feature," "applies to ionic...

Nine action-packed organic chemistry exercises are contained in this mini-unit on carbon containing compounds. Examples include constructing models of alkanes, producing aromatic esters, and preparing pigments for paint and dyes....

This handout, produced in the UK, contains a chart of cations and anions. It explains how ionic compounds are formed and named. This concise and attractive handout can be helpful as a reference for your chemistry apprentices.

Rather than simply matching up the ionic charges on paper, this exercise gets chemists into the lab to determine the chemical formula for magnesium oxide! If a known amount of magnesium is used, an oxidation reaction results in this...

By contrasting cations and anions, this presentation shows how to predict ionic charges by periodic groups. The slides conclude with a few guided practice problems for writing ionic compound formulas. 

Practice naming chemical compounds or stating the formula when given the name. Discover how well you have mastered these skills either by time or percentage correct.

Teach the basics of chemical symbols and formulas. A simple video lesson outlines the fundamentals of chemical symbols. Learners can watch and rewatch to ensure understanding.

Do your chemistry scholars know their esters? Introduce the class to the nomenclature and structural formulas of common esters through thought-provoking games. Individuals or pairs of pupils match the name with the formula before using...

For this compounds worksheet, students will practice writing compound names when given the formula and write the formula when given the compound name. There are 160 fill in the blank questions.
