1. Molecular Madness
Molecular compounds consist of two or more non-metallic elements.
In a molecular compound, atoms share valence electrons in order to form a covalent bond and become stable.

2. Naming and Formula Writing
1. The first element keeps its regular name.
2.The second element ends in the suffix “ide”.
3. Add prefixes to both elements to indicate the number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

3. Provide the correct name when given the formula….
P2O5 = diphosphorous pentaoxide
OCl2 = oxygen dichloride
Br2 = bromine
CF4 = carbon tetrafluoride
BH3 = boron trihydride
CH3OH= methanol
N2H4 = dinitrogen tetrahydride
SiH4 = silane

4. Provide the correct name when given the formula….
SiO2 = silicon dioxide
O3 = ozone
SF2 = sulfur difluoride
C12H22O11 = sucrose
P4 = phosphorus
AsCl3 = arsenic trichloride
SO3 = sulfur trioxide

5. Provide the correct formula when given the name:
P5O10
NH3
CS2 HF I2
BCl3
C4H10 S8
CH4
CO2
CH3OH
C3H8
N2O5
C2H4
