· State the rules for naming ionic and covalent compounds in both the old and new (stock) naming systems?

· State the rules for naming binary acids and oxy-acids?

· State the name of an ionic compound given its formula, an ion chart and periodic table, in both old and new (stock) naming systems?

· State the formula of an ionic compound given its name, an ion chart and periodic table?

· State the name of a covalent compound given its formula and periodic table, in both old and new (stock) naming systems?

· State the formula of a covalent compound given its name, an ion chart and periodic table?

· State the name of an acid given its formula, an ion chart and a periodic table?

· State the formula of an acid given its name, an ion chart and a periodic table?

· State the oxidation number for an atom in a compound or an ion given the compound or ion’s formula, an ion chart and a periodic table?

· Explain why the terms formula unit and formula weight are used with ionic compounds instead of the terms molecule and molecular weight?

· Calculate the percent composition for a compound given its name or formula?

· Find the empirical formula for a compound given its percent composition?

· Find the molecular formula for a compound given its empirical formula and the molecular weight?
