More Polyatomic Ion Resources
October 25, 2011Thanks to the students who sent me these cool links – I won’t name names in case that would cause embarrassment, but much appreciated and thank you for sharing!
Polyatomic Ion Quizlet: Flash Cards
Youtube song about Polyatomic Ions: Hooray!
- This is the lyrics:
- Let’s get down to business with ammonium N H 4 Positive it’s the only one. Nitrite and nitrate are 2 and 3 and they’re both negative. If I pass this quiz, I will live. Next comes the Chlorines C L O, 2 3 and 4, don’t forget their negative just like the ones before so are hydroxide, cyanide, and permangante OH, CN, MnO 4. Bisulfate is H S O 4  Dihydrogen phosphate, H 2 P O 4, bicarbonate is H C O 3. Accetate is the longest C 2 H 3 O 2. Now it’s time to learn the ones that are minus two carbonate Co3 -2. Sulfite and fate are three and four. Chromate is Cr O 4. Dichromate is Cr 2 O 7. Now we’re almost through. We’ve got three to go. peroxide has two atoms and their both O. Hydrogen phosphate is the last one and it’s H PO 4 oh and phosphate is PO 4, three minus!

Polyatomic Ions
October 24, 2011Recap of transition metal naming. Introduced polyatomic ions. Just like vocabulary in a foreign language, these need to be memorized. Click on the link below for the table of ions that need to be memorized for this year.
Quiz on Polyatomic Ions Thursday 10/27 !!
Attached to this post is a Powerpoint polyatomic Jeopardy game (I hope)!
