Question

snc2p chemistry
putting it all together... ionic and molecular compounds!
name
rules:

1. check if the compound is metal and nonmetal (ionic compound) or nonmetal and nonmetal (molecular compound)
2. if its ionic, write the charge above each element and then crisscross down
3. if its molecular, use prefixes (ex: mono, di, tri, tetra)

chemical formula	chemical name	ionic (i) or molecular (m)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify metal - non - metal combinations

For each compound, check if it consists of a metal and a non - metal (ionic) or non - metals only (molecular).

Step2: Fill in the table

Based on the above identification, write the chemical formula, chemical name and whether it is ionic (I) or molecular (M).
