2-4 ELEMENTS AND COMPUNDS (cont.)


Because our previous class was shortened, we continued our lesson by learning:

There are many methods in seperating mixtures. Depending on the type of mix, possible methods of seperating mixtures include


  • By hand

  • Filtration

  • Distillation

  • Crystallization

  • Chromatography

Some elements use Latin. But, there are a few exceptions. Some of those exeptions include:



  • Copper= Cuprum

  • Gold= Aurum

  • Iron=Ferum

  • Lead= Plumbum

  • Silver= Argentum

Naming chemical compunds is a difficult task. But, the most common system is the IUPAC



  • IONS

  • BINARY IONIC

  • POLYATOMIC IONS

  • MOLECULAR COMPOUNDS

  • ACIDS

When naming ions, remember that for metals: use the name of your element and add ion. For non-metals, remove the original ending and ade -ide.

Binary Ionic Compounds contain two elements (one metal and one non-metal)

  • Metallic and non-metallic bond together
  • Electrons trasnfer from metal to non-metal
  • Net charge=0 ( total positive charge=total negative charge)

That is all. Mr. Doktor is the best!
