Writing the Chemical
Formula of a Compound
A Cation composed of one atom retains the
name of the element from which it is produced.
An Anion composed of one atom always ends in
ide rather than the usual ending of the name of
the element from which it is produced.
Polyatomic Ions are ions that are composed of
two or more atoms.
Naming Covalent
Compounds
Covalent Compounds are compounds composed
of non-metals (including H, B, Be).
Greek prefixes
Lewis Dot Symbol
Gilbert Lewis
Valence electrons
