The alkali metals in group 1 are always +1 when they form cations. The alkaline earth metals in group 2 are always +2 when they form cations. Aluminum and the elements in group 3 are always +3 when they form cations. Zinc and cadmium always form +2 cations. Monatomic Cation Names. The names of monatomic cations always start with the name of the metal, sometimes followed by a Roman numeral to indicate the charge of the ion. For example, Cu + is copper(I), and Cu 2+ is copper(II).
The bond found in covalent molecules is a covalent bond which results from two atomic nuclei sharing electrons. This exercise is designed to allow you to explore the world of ionic compounds. When you complete this exercise you should understand: 1. Which elements form cations and which elements form anions.2. Be able to list all metals that form cations of a specific charge and identify that charge. 3. Be able to list all elements that form anions and identify the charge they will have. 4. Be able to name cations, anions, and polyatomic ions.5.hen you complete this exercise you should understand: 1. Which elements form cations and which elements form anions. 2.
