Example #1 write the chemical formula for Calcium Oxide

Step 1

-Find the Atomic symbol of the metal and non-metal on the periodic table

CaO

Step 2

Find the charges for Calcium and Oxygen

which are Ca 2+ and O 2-

Step 3

Balance out the charges

They are already balanced out

Here´s the chemical formula for Calcium Oxide

CaO

Example 2 write the chemical formula for Aluminum Oxide

Step 1

-Find the Atomic symbol of the metal and non-metal on the periodic table

A

l

O

Step 2

Find the charges for Aluminum and Oxygen

Which are Al 3+ and O 2-

Step 3

Balance out the charges

You need 2 Aluminum and 3 Oxygen to balance the charges

Al 3+ O 2-

Al 3+ O 2-

= 6 + O 2-

= 6-

Step 4

If you need more then one element to balance out the charges you identify that by using subscripts

Heres your chemical formula for Aluminum Oxide

Al_{2} O_{3}
