hydrogen
Another method uses “bi” instead of
non-metal
covalent compounds start with a
metal or the ammonium ion
ionic compounds start with a
prefix
If the compound is covalent Use the ______ system
Check the metal to see if it is multivalent (add roman numeral if it is).
If it ends with a single non-metal, naming will just end in -ide
If it ends in a polyatomic ion, look up the name/formula
If it ends with a single non-metal, naming will just end in -ide
If it ends in a polyatomic ion, look up the name/formula
If the the compound is ionic….
