Names to Formulas 2

The Names to Formulas 2 Concept Builder provides learners with a cognitive workout identify correct and incorrect formulas for binary molecular, binary ionic, and for ionic compounds containing polyatomic ions. Each question presents the names of three compounds and a formula for each. Students must identify which of the proposed formulas is inconsistent with the given name. Once they feel comfortable with their choices, they can check their answers and receive immediate feedback. There are three different levels of difficulty. The first level includes binary molecular compounds. The second difficulty level includes non-binary ionic compounds that contain a polyatomic ion. The third difficulty level includes a mix of binary compounds and compounds with polyatomic ions.

There are a total of 42 questions in this Concept Builder. They are organized into 14 different Question Groups and spread across the three difficulty levels. Question-specific help is provided for each of the 14 situations. Questions in the same Question Group are similar questions. The built-in score-keeping makes this Concept Builder a perfect candidate for a classroom activity.
