In chemistry, the chemical nomenclature of ionic and molecular compounds uses a systematic approach of prefixes to indicate ...
The formula of an ionic compound can be deduced from the formulae of its ions. Remember that for the metal elements in groups 1, 2, and 3 the charge on the ion can be deduced by how many outer shell ...
Cations can be identified with flame tests or precipitate tests using sodium hydroxide and ammonia solutions. Anions (halide, sulfate, and carbonate ions) can be identified using precipitate tests or ...
