Math 9 Mr. Head's Madness Challenge

Mr. Head	33	30	16	8	0	0	87

We're now into the Final Four. If there is a "0" in the remaining two round boxes that means you cannot receive any more points in this tournament for that round.  Francis has taken the lead and control of this competition behind the "pick of the tournament" in Syracuse taking them all the way to the championship game. If Syracuse beats UNC that will give Francis another 16 points and eliminate Ben and Brayden who have UNC winning the tourney (which would give them each 24 more points and Brayden the crown).   Sam, Riley and Jack can add to their point totals with wins by Oklahoma (Sam), UNC (Riley) and Villanova (Jack) in the fifth round, but they cannot win this competition because they don't have those teams going any further.  Merrick has a solid chance of catching Francis. Merrick has Villanova winning the whole thing. If Villanova wins and does not play Syracuse in the final, he is your winner!

To sum up.

If #10 SYRACUSE WINS IT ALL...FRANCIS WINS!

If  #2 OKLAHOMA WINS IT ALL... FRANCIS WINS!

If  #1 NORTH CAROLINA WINS IT ALL...BRAYDEN WINS!

If # 2 VILLANOVA WINS IT ALL...MERRICK WINS!

However, if VILLANOVA beats SYRACUSE in the Final... Francis and Merrick tie, and nobody wants that...well maybe Francis and Merrick do.

Good luck Gentleman!

Molecular vs Ionic Compound Nomenclature

***Disregard "old method" of naming ionic compounds that contain multivalent transition metals on this chart, and DO NOT CAPITALIZE LIKE THEY DID!***

Here are some Molecular Compounds, Ionic Compounds, Acids and bases to write their IUPAC name (or classical name if an acid) or to write the formula for. Try them!

Before you name them, know what type you have first…

TiCl_{3 (s)}  IONIC                                                                                      

titanium (III) chloride

 dinitrogen triarsenide    MOLECULAR                            

 N₂As₃                                    

CO _(g)   MOLECULAR                                                                                      

carbon monoxide                                      

beryllium nitrite IONIC                                                                           

Be(NO₃)_{2 (s)}        You could also put _(aq) as all nitrates are highly soluble          

CBr₄    MOLECULAR                                                                           

carbon tetrabromide           

HI _(aq)    ACID

aqueous hydrogen iodide or hydroiodic acid

(NH₄)₂SO_{3 (aq)} IONIC                                                         

aqueous ammonium sulphite   (ammonium sulphite in solution)               

hypochlorous acid  ACID

 (aqueous  hygrogen hypochlorite = “ous acid”) = HClO _(aq)  

Ca(OH)_{2  (s)}  IONIC (BASE)                                                          

calcium hydroxide (it is a base but calcium is only slightly soluble with hydroxide ions, therefore we use (s) and not (aq).

             

platinum (IV) carbonate   IONIC

Pt (CO₃)_{2  (s)}  platinum is insoluble with carbonate ions so we use (s)

Si₂F₆    MOLECULAR                                                                         

disilicon hexafluoride                                 

 H₃BO_{3 (aq)}    ACID                                                         

aqueous hydrogen borate or boric acid
