Theeeeennnnn, jump into why cations are cations and why anions are anions.Giving students the why too soon will confuse them.Here's the blank periodic table and cation worksheet I referenced in the podcast.You can see all the cation and anion images I was referencing in this blog link.Cation Anio...
