Memorizing and Using the List of Polyatomic Ions

In this video we’ll cover how to memorize the common polyatomic ions and how to use the polyatomic ion table. We’ll also cover several important ions of transition metals you should know.

The common polyatomic ion list is used frequently in chemistry when naming and writing formulas of chemical compounds. Some instructors allow us to have the polyatomic ion table on tests, others do not. Check to be sure and if you aren’t allowed to have one make sure you know the ions you are responsible for memorizing.

A key rule to remember is that polyatomic ions ending in -ite have one less Oxygen atom than the corresponding ion ending in -ate. So NO2 - is the nitrite ion. NO3 - is called nitrate.

Really useful. I just needed to check a few ions but I realised that back in school no had bothered to explain us so effectively. We were left to figure this out by ourselves. Thanks a lot ☺

best youtube chanel ever!! if you want to learn watch his videos!!very well explained...Ps I always watch your videos because I learn more with you than Ido with my own proffesor.

[shubhamkumar]

you doing a great work in chemistry keep it up mahn 🔥

[subsonic]

Thank you sir it was very great!now I can remember it faster 👍👍👍👍

[adityayadav]

Thx sir I was puzzled before watch this video.

[bfb]

Very helpful I'm glad I finally found this video

[lightcapmath]

Excellent... I use ate more than ite...but like the bite analogy. Thank you Dr. B...DVD:)

[newaccount]

I love all your videos thanks much now I see I'm learning something. Sir, may you please make one video for oxidation and reduction with some examples? 🙏🙏

[Amirdokht]

Thank you! Your content is so organized that makes learning so clear! 🧩

[vedanshagarwal]

thx a lot. Helped a lot. All that ide and ite stuff went over my head but this video explained nicely

[ashtonsmith]

Any tips for someone who just got into ap chemistry?

[nabanitanandi]

Sir please make a video on how to learn the ionic charge of non metallic element and Sir please tell me how to memorize the entire periodic table.

[alinawaz]

sir i really liked your video
but iwant the complete list of ions < so please provide me that list, that i may be read out it offline mode

[niravg]

Superrrr helpful i have a test thursday thank you so much

[alinawaz]

I have another question, how can remember the atomic masses of all the elements of PT ? Not just 20.

[sabnamssr]

Hii dr.B, can u make video on organic chemistry class11.. please...

[studyrikamode]

Is it okay to you if I translate this video into German in a video?

[wvz.]

waaaait i recognize this voice, are u the same Dr. B in Magnets and....?
