| Type I ionic compounds consist of | group 1A and 2A |
| Groups 1A and 2A form | type I ionic compounds |
| there are three steps | to naming ions |
| a cation is named | first |
| the anion is named | second |
| a simple cation is obtained | from a single atom |
| a simple cation takes the name of | the element it came from |
| a simple anion is | like a simple cation, obtained from a single atom |
| a simple anion is named | by taking the first part of element's name and adding "ide" |
| the name of the compound is | written by combinging the names of ions |
| the name of ionic compounds lists | the cation first |
| NaI | sodium iodide |
| CaO | calcium oxide |
| NaI forms from | Na+ and Cl- |
| CaO forms from | Ca 2+ and O2- |
