Hon Chemistry 10-27-21 Binary Ionic Compounds Formulas & Names

HON CHEMISTRY: Great start on writing and naming chemical formulas! What’d you think? Do-able? Absolutely!!

Today we concentrated on binary ionic compounds today with a short look at compounds with polyatomic ions. We’ll go kind of slow to begin with, but make sure to take time to practice, practice, practice, and learn it step by step. You’ll be as lost as ball in high weeds if you let yourself get behind!

CHEMISTRY – Are you ready? God bless you as you study! Here’s our overview of chapter 1 and the test – good stuff!!

Make sure you aren’t just reading your book and notes. First, memorize the facts, then go back and make sure you can apply the concepts. Study examples, make your own examples, practice making questions.

Don’t forget the Chapter 1 Pre-test. It’s due Friday morning at 8:00 A.M. Scroll down here on the web site for the web post from yesterday to find it.

If you want some interactive practice for the test (GREAT IDEA!!) here are a couple of great reviews from The Physics classroom. These are optional, so sign on as “Guest” if you want to do them:
Chemical vs. Physical Properties
Metals, Nonmetals & Metalloids
Classification of Matter

Also remember there are great review games that are in the Student Premium section of the online textbook. You can do this – I believe in you! I’m praying for you!!
