Chemistry 431 Period 3 & 5: What's Up!

Chemistry 431 has spent the last few weeks studying the periodic table.  Its design is and structure looks somewhat haphazard to the untrained eye, but it reflects the structure and nature of the atoms of the elements.

Currently the classes are studying the nomenclature of ionic compounds.  Essentially the classes are learning how to write the names and formulas for a class of compounds made up of metal and non-metal elements.

Is it tough?  Yes. With a little studying and practice though it is easy.  There will most likely be a test within the week.
