  Ionic Bonding | High School

  Game: Most Recent Version of Matchmaker 2023 Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this game, students will test their ionic bonding knowledge by forming ionic compounds from a variety of ions. During the game students will be provided with a name of the ionic compound and two ions (one cation and one anion). The goal of the game is to form an ionic compound that matches the name using the provided ions. Students score points by combining the ions in the correct ratio, based on the charges, and by selecting the matching chemical formula.

  Ionic Bonding, Naming Compounds, Polyatomic Ions | High School

  Activity: Introduction to Naming and Formula Writing for Ionic Compounds Mark as Favorite (39 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will be introduced to ionic compound formulas and names. They will group prepared cut-outs to note similarities and differences among different classes of ionic compounds (i.e. binary and ternary, including metals with varying charges). The goal is not to be equipped to write names and formulas for ionic compounds, but to recognize trends in naming.

  Activity: Isn't it Ionic Mark as Favorite (17 Favorites)

  In this activity students will form ionic compounds and covalent compounds using clues and questions. Students are going to then develop their own stoichiometric problems and have other groups attempt to solve it.

• 

  Ionic Bonding, Net Ionic Equation | High School

  Lab: The pH of Salts Mark as Favorite (8 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will determine whether an aqueous solution is acidic, basic, or neutral. Students will write net ionic equations for the hydrolysis of a solution.

• 

  Ionic Bonding, Covalent Bonding, Physical Properties | High School

  Lab: You Light Up My Life! Mark as Favorite (58 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will participate in a guided inquiry in which they will test different physical properties, such as conductivity and solubility of given samples. This lab can be used to introduce ionic, covalent and metallic bonds as well as their properties. This lab should help students make connections between the types of bonds, differentiate between them, as well as help to better understand the nomenclature of ionic and covalent compounds.

• 

  Ionic Bonding, Lewis Structures, Naming Compounds | Middle School, High School

  Activity: Ionic Bonding Puzzle Mark as Favorite (41 Favorites)

  In this activity, students match puzzle pieces to create neutral ionic compounds. Once they have made a neutral ionic compound they can use electron dot diagrams to show the formation of the compounds. Finally they will name the ionic compounds.

  Activity: Simulation Activity: Ionic and Covalent Bonding Mark as Favorite (53 Favorites)

  In this simulation, students investigate both ionic and covalent bonding. Students will have the opportunity to interact with many possible combinations of atoms and will be tasked with determining the type of bond and the number of atom needed to form each. The simulation visually differentiates between the transferring of electrons when forming an ionic compound and the sharing of electrons when forming a covalent compound so that students can have a complete understanding of each. Finally, students will become familiar with the molecular formula, as well as the naming system for each type of bond and geometric shape, when applicable.
