We gotta know how to name all the molecules, and oxyacids are a type of molecule, so let's learn how to name them!

In this video, we discuss the rules [with examples] for naming binary molecules in general chemistry.

When we learned about periodic trends, we learned about ionization energy. Just how much energy is required to remove an electron from an atom? What about a second electron, or a third? Let's compare a few different ionizations and see...

Acids! Bases! Conjugate acids! Conjugate bases! We definitely have to be able to label such things, and we should also know how to state which direction in an acid-base equilibrium is preferred. To do this we should know how to tell...

We know that within an ionic compound, the ions are held together by ionic bonds. What is the strength of those bonds, and what is the lattice energy possessed by the entire lattice? Can we compare two compounds and say which has the...

We know about ionic bonds and ionic compounds, how do we name them? Let's practice going from formula to name, and also from name to formula.

As long as we're naming stuff, let's name these hydrated salts! You know, like epsom salts?

This lesson will introduce the rules for writing the names and chemical formulae of non-metal anions and metal cations, including metals with multiple positive oxidation states.

Definitions included: compound, cation, anion, IUPAC,...

Learn the basics about what salts are, as part of the overall topic of acids and bases.

Learn the basics about the reactions of halogens, when learning about the periodic table as a part of properties of matter. Group 7 of the periodic table is the halogens. The reaction between diatomic chlorine gas and cold sodium...

This video begins with an example of a simple ionic compound, salt, showing a model and then its chemical name. The video continues with an example of a divalent metal and discusses the oxidation number of the elements in these compounds...

In this video, we discuss the three rules for naming acids in general chemistry. Plenty of examples!

We have to know how to name ionic compounds. Not any name we want like Jeff or Larry, there's rules for how to name them. And look at all these adorable polyatomic ions!
