Instructions and help about List Of Ions

in this video we're going to focus on memorizing the polyatomic ions now you need to commit this to memory because this information will be useful for the remainder of your chemistry course we need it to write formulas of chemical compounds to balance equations you need to know the charges as well and if you're first learning polyatomic ions you may think it's not important but later on in chemistry you'll see that it is important so you might as well just learn it now the first one we're going to talk about is no3 minus in addition we're going to talk about no2 minus and n3 minus do you know the names of these three ions the first two are polyatomic ions because they're ions that are composed of many atoms the third one is a monoatomic ion it's an ion that's composed of one particle one atom the first one is called nitrate the second is known as nitrite so one thing you need to be familiar with is that eight has one more oxygen and i anytime you see eight or i it's a polyatomic ion t
