Objectives:
1. Name ionic compounds
2. Name covalent compounds
3. Name polyatomic compounds
1. Name ionic compounds
2. Name covalent compounds
3. Name polyatomic compounds
REMEMBER THE FIRST STEP IS ALWAYS IDENTIFY THE TYPE OF COMPOUND: ionic, covalent, or polyatomic?
Formulas come from STABLE Lewis diagrams... don't forget how they workIONIC: metal is present and electrons transfer
COVALENT: only nonmetals and electrons are shared |
