Quick ionic check point with elements from the s and p block
  • When naming a compound, capitlization will not effect your answer being correct or not.
  • Put a space between the names of element/polyatomic ions.
  • NO COMMAS or DASHES. Use a capital I or V or X in roman numerals.
  • Do not forget your parenthese around the roman numeral.
  • SPELLING COUNTS!! Use your periodic table and polyatomic ion sheet WISELY!
  • For example:
questions gives this: Mn3(PO4)2 your answer should look like: Manganese (II) phospate
  • Remember, when writing a symbol CAPITALIZE the first letter and the second letter (if the symbol has a second letter) will be lower case.
  • Do not enter ones if your compound has a subscript of one.
  • You do not have to use the subscript or superscript in formating, please type the compound as shown below:
questions gives this: Manganese (II) phospate your answer should look like: Mn3(PO4)2
