Explore the starter family of left side elements and how to name compounds by pairing right side names with left side symbols, using silver chloride and ammonium nitrate as examples.
lesson 10 introduces seven new left-side elements from the far side of the periodic table and guides you in naming the entire formula with this extended left-side set.
Practice translating substance names into chemical formulas by balancing charges with criss-cross rules for ions from the extended family and right-side groups, including examples like sodium cyanide and lithium acetate.
Identify formulas with hydrogen on the left and distinguish acid names from substance names. Use the hydro prefix for core-family acids and review examples like hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids.
Learn to name hydrates by appending numerical prefixes to the hydrate name after the formula, indicating h2o units, with examples like penta hydrate and deka hydrate, including 10 h2o units.
Learning how to learn Chemistry is the single most important skill you'll need to master the material in a rigorous high school or college Chemistry course. CoreMethod Chemistry trains your brain to do just that through a chemical naming training series! CoreMethod Chemistry has a vision for foundational skill training in 3 core areas; The Language, The Math, and the Chemical Concepts. Investing in learning the language of chemistry first, the way you would any new language...a deep integration and automatic recall... will provide the context for everything else you learn in a Chemistry course. It is sure to make your experience in Chemistry enjoyable and successful. This course will train you beyond rot memorization in a fun and effective way and build your confidence for earning an A in your Chemistry class. It will demystify the language of chemistry, bring your awareness to the patterns that exist in the system of Chemistry, and ultimately help you appreciate the simplicity found in the methods and approaches used in Chemistry.
