  1. Steps forDetermining the Chargeon the Transition Metal (Multivalent Metals)

  2. Example: MnO2 Step 1: Find the charge on the nonmetal. MnO2 -2

  3. Example: MnO2 Step 2: Multiply this charge by the NM subscript. MnO2 -2 -4

  4. Example: MnO2 Step 3: The overall negative charge must EQUAL the overall positive charge. MnO2 -2 -4 +4

  5. Example: MnO2 Step 4: Divide the overall positive charge by the M subscript. Mn1O2 -2 +4 -4 +4 4÷1 = 4

  6. Example: MnO2 Step 5: This final number is your Roman Numeral! Mn1O2 Manganese (IV) oxide -2 +4

  7. Try These… • FeP • Sn3N4 • CuCl2 • CoS
