    I don't understand how this 7 minute video helped more than 2 weeks of my professor telling us "If you don't know the names you're all going to fail".

      2 weeks? Our teacher told us about the quiz 5 DAYS before, and she didn't even teach us what polyatomic ions were until 2 days ago. Now I have so little time to memorize all these before Monday :(

  • @alyssalynursal3869

    The table helped a lot, thank you. Then for charges I just remember that all the -ates that have a subscript of 3 are -1. All the -ates that have a subscript of 4 are -2, except for phosphate(which has a charge of -3). These at least apply to the family ions which I am familiar with.
