Writing the chemical formula of Binary Ionic
Compounds
1. Write the formula of the cation first,
followed by the formula of the anion.
2. The formula should indicate the
smallest number of cation and anion
units combined to give an overall
charge of zero.
Example 1
Write the formula of Aluminum oxide
cation anion
Ions: Al3+ O2-
