Sophia: Ionic Compounds: Binary Compound Names With Transition Metals: Lesson 3

In this oxidation numbers and ionic compounds worksheet, students write the formula for compounds given ions, they write the ions given formulas, they list oxidation numbers for elements, they write formulas for compounds and they name...

For this compounds activity, students name ionic and molecular compounds given their formulas. They also write the formulas for molecular and ionic compounds given their names.

This is not a learning exercise per se but a reference sheet for your chemistry class. It lists cations and anions, their chemical symbols, and their net charges. Also included is a thorough explanation of combining these ions to form...

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. 

Continue leading your class through the ionic journey as they learn additional ways to name ionic compounds. Pupils focus on deriving compound names from their formulas, including fixed charge metal ions, variable charge metal ions,...

I asked the cat sitting next to me if he had any Sodium Hypobromite; he said NaBrO. The third video in the six-part series introduces how to name polyatomic ions such as Sodium Hypobromite. It offers the general rules and a few example...

It's true! Opposites do attract! A straightforward video lesson explains the basics of ionic bonding. Using visual models, the instructor describes the repeating patterns in an ionic compound. She also explains how a formula unit simply...

These atoms don't believe in sharing. Introduce intrepid chemists to ionic boding using an engaging JFR Science video. Topics include ionic compounds, how the bonds form, and properties of ionic salts.

This lesson will demonstrate how to write a chemical formula for a binary ionic compound that includes a transition metal. It is 4 of 4 in the series titled "Ionic Compounds: Formulas from Binary Compound Names with Transition Metals."
