2
Counting Ions Sodium chloride or NaCl contains 1 sodium ion and 1 chloride ion. (Lewis dot diagrams)
3
Counting Ions However, different ions may form compounds in different ratios. For example, calcium chloride or CaCl 2 contains 1 calcium ion and 2 chloride ions. (Subscripts are added to the symbols in a formula if there is more than one of that type of atom.)

12
Why These Ratios? It is the valence electrons that determine how these ions combine. For example, calcium had 2 valence electrons to lose and each chlorine only wants 1. So calcium has to find 2 chlorines.

19
Ratio Practice Use diagrams to determine how the following combine to form compounds: Al 3+ and O 2- Al 2 O 3 Notice that the quick method of determining the formula is to criss-cross the valences:
20
Criss-cross But the ratio between the ions must be reduced to lowest terms (and 1s are not written). E.g. Pb 4+ and O 2- becomes ?not Pb 2 O 4
