Ion Names, Formulas, and Charges Chart

By: The Flinn Staff


Writing the correct chemical formula for ionic compounds is an essential skill in chemistry. Help students master that task with this comprehensive chart. The names and formulas of the cations are listed in the left column and the pattern is repeated in the right column for anions. By noting the charges of the ions, students can quickly determine the correct formula for many combinations of cations and anions. Chart size is 32" x 48". Printed on sturdy 80# stock with a reduced-glare laminate covering. Three eyelets at the top prevent tearing, and allow for easy hanging and removal during test time.
