Group the ion pieces by
charge (positive or
negative).

Click and drag to move


the pieces.
Cations
4) Notice the shape
and charge of each
cation model.

What do the slots in


the cation pieces
represent?

Your answer:

Hint: What must happen to an atom for it to become a positively charged ion?
Anions
5) Notice the shape
and charge of each
anion model.

What do the slots in


the anion pieces
represent?

Your answer:

Hint: What must happen to an atom for it to become a negatively charged ion?
Making
Compounds
Use the ion models on each slide.
Combine the ions to make a compound.
You may not need all of the pieces provided. AIM FOR A RECTANGLE.

Remember: Write positive ion FIRST, negative


ion SECOND.

In the future we will Name the compound.


Remember: Write metal first, and then nonmetal second.
Change the nonmetal ending to -IDE.
