Come up with a hypothesis at to why NaCl isn’t reactive while its ions are:

IONIC COMPOUND NAME

NaF
AgNO3
K2S
FeCO3

The above picture shows the electrons of sodium and chlorine. Draw the electron transfer
from the metal to the non-metal
Fill in the table below with the Latin prefixes that are used for naming hydrates.

Number Name
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

Turn to your partner and try and name these hydrates:

 1) MgCl2 * 5H2O
 2) AlCl3 * 9H2O
 3) LiOH * 2H2O
 4) NaF * 1H2O

Putting it all together.


Complete the chart below that highlights the differences between the three bonding using
the lecture notes and handouts

Revisiting your hypothesis and revising your model.

Create a model showing the electron movements in NaCl and describe why its extremely
stable when its lone ions are not.
