Chemistry Review Package
Chemistry Review Package
o Atomic History
o All those scientists that worked on a model of what the atom looked like. You
need to know their theories and their names
o Periodicity
o The periodic table and how it is organized
o Eg. If an element is in group 1 that means it has….
o Ionic Compounds
o How to create ionic compounds so that the summary of charges = zero
o Know that the metal ion (cation) is first and the non metal ion (anion) is second
o Understand why they bond (because there is a transfer of electrons)
o Eg. Na2SO4 is sodium sulfate, NaCl is sodium chloride
o The transition cations can be multivalent (example: Fe can form two different
ions – the most common ion is listed on top)
o Solubility
o Solubility Table – use it to predict the solubility of a compound in water.
o If something is soluble in water, it is aqueous.
o Know how to tell if something is soluble or not so you can put the STATE the
compound is in when you write out chemical equations
-1-
o Acids and Bases
o Know how to name them (if it has a hydrogen in it, its an acid)
o Bases have the hydroxide ion (OH-)
o Know the properties of acids and bases
o Know how to tell if something is an acid or a base
▪ Indicators: pH, litmus, etc
o Molecular Compounds
o Know the difference between these and ionic compounds (theory)
o Know how to name them (prefix system)
o Know characteristics
o Molecular Elements – atoms that exist as molecules (more than one atom bond together)
o SHPON

not have in common. (think about the lab we did)
