Concepts and their meaning must be embossed like vocabulary.

Atoms are electrically neutral. Electrons are simply negative.

Metals release electrons and become positive, non-metals take them up and become negative.

The number of electrons which can be emitted or taken up can be seen in the periodic system (main groups).

1,2,3,4,3,2,1,0

For subgroup elements (all metals) it is necessary to learn how many electrons are emitted (e.g. Hg: 2, Fe: 2 or 3, Ag: 1 etc.)

In the formula, the 1 is not written (it is already a symbol of it).

Try it: Ca is a metal. Where is the period system? How many electrons does Ca give off? You’ve already got sulfur on your part. Then it’s really easy.
