Electrochemistry Oxidation – Reduction and Oxidation Numbers
... Chemists have devised a useful bookkeeping method to determine if electron transfer is involved in a chemical reaction. It is referred to as the oxidation state method. If an atom loses electrons, it is oxidized. If an atom gains electrons, it is reduced. The oxidation state or equivalently, the oxi ...

Naming Ionic Compounds with Transition Metals
... Rules for naming ionic compounds with transition metals: 1. The name of the metal ALWAYS comes first: The metal’s name is as it is on the periodic table Identify the metals charge with Roman Numerals 2. The name of the nonmetal ALWAYS comes second. Change the ending of the nonmetal to “ide” 3 ...
