    • Elements with identical electron configurations are isoelectronic.
    • Identify the noble gas that is isoelectronic with the provided ion.
    • Example: Arsenic ion is isoelectronic with Kr.
    • Example: Fluoride ion is isoelectronic with Ne
    • Example: Boron ion is isoelectronic with He
    • Example: Sodium ion is isoelectronic with Ne

    Identifying Metals and Non-metals

    • Beryllium is a metal, and fluorine is a non-metal
    • Determine which element in a compound is a metal and which is a non-metal to predict the ionic compound formula.

    Drawing Bohr-Rutherford Diagrams

    • Show electron transfer in an ionic reaction
    • Example: Show the transfer of electrons from Beryllium to Fluorine to form the ionic compound.
    • Indicate the ionic charges on the ions

    Determining Overall Charge

    • The overall charge on the compound must equal zero.

    Naming Ionic Compounds
