Al₂O₃

List the name and the formula for the acid that will produce the sulfate ion upon dissolving in water.

Ammonium Sulfate (Maybe, I couldn't google this one, so double check))

Why are the noble gases inert (means "not reactive")?

Because they have 8 valence electrons, they are stable

NO₃⁻

List the six polyatomic ions, names and formulas, and the one molecule, name and formula, that you memorized for chemistry class.

Nitrate ion = NO⁻₃ Hydroxide Ion= OH⁻ Carbonate Ion= CO²⁻₃ Sulfate Ion = SO²⁻₄ Phosphate Ion= PO³⁻₄ Ammonium Ion= NH⁺₄ Ammonia (Is a molecule) = NH₃

Would elements from group 16 and 17 combine to form an ionic compound? Why, or why not?

No, because they are all nonmetals

Single bond= 2 electrons shared (1 pair) Double bond=4 electrons shared (2 pairs) Triple bond=6 electrons shared (3 pairs)

Where are valence electrons located?

The outermost shell of an atom

T or F A compound that has the same number of positive and negative charges is said to be electroneutral.

True

T or F The chemical formula for an ionic compound represents the lowest whole number ratio of ions that results in an electrically neutral compound.

True

Would elements from group 1 and group 17 combine to form an ionic compound? Why, or why not?

Yes because group 1 is metal and group 17 is nonmetal, therefore you can form an ionic compound

Yes, Silicon, Geranium, Tin, and Lead

What is the electrical charge of an anion?

negative

Would elements from group 1 and group 2 combine to form an ionic compound? Why, or why not?

no because they are both metals which cannot form ionic compounds
