sStep 1- write the symbol of the cation

Step 2- write the symbol of the anion


Step 3- determine the charges using the periodic and the roman numerals

Chem Reaction- is the process of breaking of chemical bonds in one or more
substances and the reforming of new bonds to create new substanes
Ex- process of making pizza invloves physical change, or the process of yeast in
the dough or by the gas stove to bake the pizza are chemical changes
Ex- Substances that change would be Methane + Oxygen, Substance that is formed
would be Carbon Dioxide + Water

Evidence of Chemical Change- Bubbling, Turns cloudy, Tempature Change, Color change

Reactants and Products- Energy is added to start a reaction


Reactant Symbols- The smallest symbols in (_) next to each chemical formula
indicate the phase of each substance in the reaction

AgI(S) + Na2S (Aq) --} Ag2S(AQ) + NaI (S)


Silver Iodide Solid combines with Sodium Sulfide Aqueous to produce Silver Sulfide
Aqueous and Sodium Iodide Solid

Covalent Bonding- Sharing of electrons between two atoms by overlapping of half


filled orbitals
-between two nonmetals
Ionic Bonding- transfer of electrons
-between a metal and a non metal

Naming Covalent Compounds


1. Add a prefix to the first nonmetal name depending on how many atoms there are,
except for when its just 1
2. Add a prefix to the second nonmetal even if its a 1
3. Drop the ending of the second nonmetals name and add -ide
4. Write them together

Subscript Number/Prefix
1/mono-
2/di-
3/tri-
4/tetra-
5/penta-
6/hexa-
7/hepta-
8/octa
9/nona-
10/deca-

N2O3- (Di)Nitrogen (Tri)Oxide
