🗑
Polyatomic Ions   Ions formed from two or more atoms/ -ate, -ite  
🗑
Binary compounds   More than two elements  
🗑
Nomenclature   Naming system of binary ionic compounds which involves combing the names of the compound's positive & negative ions/ cation followed by ion  
🗑
Stock System of Nomenclature   Used to distinguish the ions formed by elements that form two or more cations with different charges/only used with cations  
🗑
Oxoanions   polyatomic ions that contain oxygen  
🗑
Molecular Compounds   composed of individual covalently bonded units or molecules  
🗑

🗑
Salt   an ionic compound composed of a cation and the anion from an acid  
🗑
Oxidation numbers   used to indicate the general distribution of electrons among the bonded atoms in a molecular compound or a polyatomic ion assigned to the atoms composing the compound or ion  
🗑

🗑
Ionic Compound   compounds with metals  
🗑
Covalent Compound   compounds formed of only non-metals  
🗑
Molecular Mass   the mass of a molecule  
🗑
Formula Mass   the sum of the average atomic masses of all atoms represented in the formula of any moleculy/formula unit/ion
