  • thanks for this, but what happens when you dont have the cheat sheet?

  • @CroRuption Good question. I let my students use a sheet with many of the polyatomic ion names. If you are going to do a lot of chemistry you should probably memorize the most common names.

  • I love this video, but I got a bit confused on 'Manganese (IV) chromate' during "Writing Ionic Formula" at 3:36. Shouldn't it be Mn2(CrO4)4? What happened to Manganese's charge of 4+? Or is there some exception because this was a Polyatomic example?

  • @CelestiaMoon The charges would balance however you need to reduce your subscripts. In other words water is H20 not H4O2.

  • You are saving me from failing my Chemistry final tomorrow. I understood more in these 15 minutes than in the 5 hours I spent taking notes on it in class. Thank you so much!!! I just bookmarked your sight; never again will I be confused going into a science test! :)

  • I LOVE YOU BABY
