Ionic Bonding Puzzle Activity Answer Key «No Password»

| Metal Ion | Nonmetal Ion | Ratio (Metal:Nonmetal) | Chemical Formula | Compound Name | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Na⁺ | Cl⁻ | 1:1 | NaCl | Sodium chloride | | K⁺ | Br⁻ | 1:1 | KBr | Potassium bromide | | Mg²⁺ | Cl⁻ | 1:2 | MgCl₂ | Magnesium chloride | | Ca²⁺ | O²⁻ | 1:1 | CaO | Calcium oxide | | Al³⁺ | F⁻ | 1:3 | AlF₃ | Aluminum fluoride | | Al³⁺ | O²⁻ | 2:3 | Al₂O₃ | Aluminum oxide |

In the puzzle, assuming all pieces connect only one way can lead to incorrect ratios. Always check the charge sum before writing the final formula. ionic bonding puzzle activity answer key
