What I Learned About Nomenclature

During the unit of nomenclature, I learned the various types of chemical compounds and how to name them. There are Type 1, 2, and 3, polyatomic ions, and acids. At first, I had some difficulty understanding charges and balancing them, but after some practice problems, they became extremely simple. I believe the hardest part of the unit was remembering prefixes and suffixes for naming acids because there are many things to remember. Additionally, I also learned the difference between an ionic and covalent compound.
