    The document provides information about writing ionic formulas for ionic compounds. It begins by listing common binary ionic compounds and their formulas, noting they all end in -ide. It then discusses compounds containing complex ions, explaining the roman numerals in parentheses indicate the metal's valency. Finally, it lists the names of additional ionic compounds when given their formulas.
