Naming Compounds

When naming compounds and formulas it is really quite simple. Using our charts that Mr. Ludwig handed out we were able to name the formulas and compounds. Below is a quiz that we took and as you can see I did really well only messing up because I superscripted instead of subscripting which was an easy fix for me to make.
 In this picture below we named molecular compounds. By adding prefixes and suffixes we were able to determine what each formula made.
After being able to name the compounds we moved on to how they would combine to actually make the compounds. The picture below shows that by looking at the valence electrons you can determine how the compound will combine to become stable.
