Outcome
s:

2.k Explain, using the periodic table, how elements combine to form
compounds, and follow IUPAC guidelines for naming ionic compounds and
simple molecular compounds
2.2k explain the importance of and need for the IUPAC system of naming
compounds, in terms of the work that scientists do and the need to
communicate clearly and precisely
2.3k explain, using the periodic table, how and why elements combine to
form compounds in specific ratios
2.4k predict formulas and write names for ionic and molecular compounds
and common acids (e.g., sulfuric, hydrochloric, nitric, ethanoic), using a
periodic table, a table of ions and IUPAC rules
2.5k classify ionic and molecular compounds, acids and bases on the basis of
their properties; i.e., conductivity, pH, solubility, state

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Students will:
1. Understand why we are studying the IUPAC rules (that naming is like a language
that is necessary for scientists)
2. Differentiate between ionic and molecular compounds
3. Name ionic and molecular compounds and know how to convert them into formulas
4. Understand why elements bond in the ways that they do
5. Relate periodic table position to reactivity and bonding
6. Classify properties of ionic and molecular compounds

Tell and Show #1

Set up presentation on board

Check if sound is working
Have both versions of the test printed
Lesson
Today will be the Chapter 1 test
Take any last questions
Set up expectations for test writing
They will separate they may sit at the bench but they
cannot sit next to each other, they may also separate
their desks
When finished, you may work on your log book or read
through your notes/textbook to see what we will be
doing next
You may not talk during or after the test until everyone is
finished

Chapter 1 Test

12:1512:45

Watch a video vote between some

12:4512:50

Review
What is the difference between an anion and a cation?
Which subatomic particles are nucleons?
What is an isotope?
Name Cr2S3 on your own call on students for each of
the three steps and then one to give the name
Write the formula for aluminium sulfate do the same as
above

12:501:00

What is the requirement for an ionic bond? metal and

non-metal (cation and anion)
What happens when two non-metals come together?
They form a molecular compound using covalent bonds
For this reason they are often called covalent compounds
What is a covalent bond?
Sharing of electrons rather than giving and receiving like
in ionic
Watch the video on covalent bonds tell them to watch
for differences between covalent and ionic
Ask for some properties of covalent bonds

Tell and Show #1

Since covalent bonding is a sharing of electrons, how

does this differ from the ionic bonding that we were
talking about before?
The electrons dont actually leave the atom to go to
another, instead the two atoms share their electrons
Lets see how this looks when applied to a real life
example
Show an example of H2O
If hydrogen gives up an electron it has none and isnt
happy but if oxygen gives up an electron it is still left
without a full valence so neither can be happy by giving
them up
Instead they cut a deal and H helps out O while O helps
out H
Now they share their electrons in order to fill both
valences
Show video to reinforce this idea watch from 53 secs

Student Practice
#4

Have them try to draw out the electron movement for

CCl4 on their own
Allow them to have 1 min to solve this question
If you got it incorrect turn to your partner to help you. I
will be calling people to help me through it so make sure
you understand
1. C makes a deal with Cl to fill its valence
Make sure to explain the importance of drawing these
out in ordered ways
Suggest drawing as e- followed by box followed by e- makes them begin thinking about these in pairs
2. Show the movement of electrons

Tell and Show #4

Student Practice
#5

With covalent compounds, more than one electron pair

can be shared between atoms, Lets look at O2 as an
example
Draw out as shown on sheet
2 e- from each O is shared, allowing each to have a full
valence and they are both happy now

Have them try to draw out the electron movement for

CO2 on their own
Allow 1 min to solve

If you got it incorrect turn to your partner to help you. I

will be calling people to help me through it so make sure

Have students walk you through it
1. C makes a deal with the Os to fill its valence
Make sure to explain the importance of drawing these
out in ordered ways
Suggest drawing as e- followed by box followed by e- makes them begin thinking about these in pairs
2. Show the movement of electrons

Introduction #2
Go over the CO2 example
Tell and Show #5

1:341:40

These nonmetal-nonmetal compounds have a whole new

system for naming. When you are about to name make
sure to look at the type of bond first when naming! - First
thing to look at is, is it a metal and non-metal or is it two
non-metals? You cannot emphasize this enough
We will begin by looking at the rules for naming a
molecular compound
1. Name the first element
2. Name the second element with ide
3. Add prefixes to both unless the first element is
monoShow all 10 prefixes on the SMART board and where to
find them in data booklet
We will work through the example of SF6
First check if it is actually a molecular compound
because they use different naming techniques yes it is
so continue
1) sulfur
2) fluorine fluoride
3) sulfur (no mono) hexafluoride

1:401:50

Lets watch a video on SF6

labeled as 2), and nitrogen trioxide as 3) on board and

If you got it incorrect turn to your partner to help you. I
will be calling people to help me through it so make sure
you understand

How do we write the formulas from names?

We can work through a similar process as writing the
names
1. Identify symbol for first element
2. Identify symbol for second element
3. Use prefix to see how many of each will be
involved

2:052:10

Show example of tetraphosphorus decaoxide

1. First is phosphorus so P
2. Second is oxide oxygen so O
3. Tetra is 4 so 4 N and deca is 10 so 10 O
P4O10

1)Chlorine is Cl
2) Oxide Oxygen is O
3)di for Cl is 2 and hept for O is 7

Matching game that includes ionic and covalent

compounds as formulas and as names
Students will be separated into two teams
They will take turns trying to match the right name to a
compound and classify that compound as ionic or
molecular
If all three are correct, they receive a point, if not next
teams turn
