Student Notes on compounds and bonding<br />

1. Select a tag.<br />

a. Are you a positive (+) or negative (-) ion<br />

b. Are you a metal, metalloid, or non-metal<br />

c. Record your info into the data table 3 times, for the 3 different bonds you will make.<br />

2. Find one ion with an opposite charge.<br />

a. In the data table, write your partner’s element and charge.<br />

b. Categorize their element as a metal, metalloid, or non-metal.<br />

3. Write the compound into the data table. Criss-Cross your oxidation numbers to make them<br />

subscripts. Reduce if needed. (Remember, the positive ion is written first.)<br />

4. Determine the name of your new compound with the –ide ending.<br />

5. Find a new partner.<br />

6. After your 3 rd bond, check your work.<br />
