Monday, November 24

All: Complete the worksheet you got in class (if you were out, you can find it under homework docs or pick up a hard copies of everything from me tomorrow).
You will need your ion formula chart (can be found to the left of this post - also here's a video to help with polyatomic ions, if you missed class or you're confused - Formulas with PAI)!

EVERYONE will need this video, even if you were in class (make sure to take notes & sorry for the weird joke he tells...):
Naming Covalent Compounds

**If you missed class, make sure to check in with someone who was in about last night's HW. I will not go over it again, other than in extra help.

***I will be in the X-Cafe during ALL of 4th period tomorrow. If you need academic support, stop on by!

All: Use the rules below and the two video links -->  (watch in order: 1 & 2) to complete the worksheet under homework docs (you're welcome to just put the answers in your notebook).
Make sure that all pertinent information also makes it into your notebook!

Rules for Naming Binary Ionic Compounds Containing a Metal Ion With a Fixed Charge

A binary ionic compound is composed of ions of two different elements - one of which is a metal, and the other a nonmetal. For example, sodium iodide, NaI, is composed of sodium ions, Na+ (elemental sodium is a metal), and iodide ions, I- (elemental iodine is a nonmetal). Rule 1. The cation is written first in the name; the anion is written second in the name. Rule 2. The name of the cation is the same as the (neutral) element from which it is derived (e.g., Na+ = "sodium"). Rule 3. The anion is named by adding the suffix -ide to the root of the element name (e.g., I- = "iodide"). Note: Greek prefixes are not used to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the formula unit for the compound (e.g., Na2O is named "sodium oxide" not "disodium oxide", or "disodium monoxide").

All: Complete the worksheet under homework documents. You may use your notes, textbooks, etc. You DO NOT need to draw the Bohr models but DO need to draw the Lewis Structures.
