In this class, we basically learned how to name hydrates and molecular compounds.
For hydrates, you have to:

• write the name of chemical formulas
• add prefix showing the number of water molecules
  (ex. mono=1, di=2, tri=3)
• after the prefix, you can add hydrate.
  ex. Cu(S04)-5H2O(s)---> Copper(II) Sulfate- penta hydrate

In naming molecular compounds, you have to add prefixes to both elements

• ex. N2O4-->dinitrogen tetraoxide

molecular compounds :

• usually have 2 or more non-metals
• low melting and boiling point
• share electrons (not exchange)
• usually end in -gen
  

Example of a hydrate [ copper (II) sulfate ]

Hi, Did you know that the test of all knowledge is experiment. :)
