  • Day 7 Quiz*
  • Ionic Nomenclature (yellow WS assigned on Day 7).  If you don't know what #1 and #2 are asking for, download the Ionic Nomenclature PowerPoint and take a look at slides 15-18 and 22.

  • Formula Fun: Writing Ionic Compounds (green WS assigned on Day 8).  You can print out your own Formula Fun Kit to use at home.

Struggling with Roman Numerals?
  • Download the Ionic Nomenclature PowerPoint and click through the example problems.  The PowerPoint version of these notes (as opposed to the two pdf versions) shows, step-by-step, the process of solving for the Roman Numeral.
  • Watch this YouTube tutorial.
  • Cut out the ion puzzle pieces on the 2nd and 3rd pages of Formula Fun!  Using them will help you get correct answers and learn patterns that you'll use over and over.
  • Talk to your teacher. (We're not that scary.)
Do you need more Ionic Formula-Writing practice?
Or Ionic Naming Practice?
Or Both? More?
*If you missed this, you need to come to the classroom to make it up.  It is in the Quiz/Skyward binder at the front of the class.
