From the perspective of the student, chemical nomenclature is a series of complex rules and situations involving unfamiliar concepts, such as, transition-metal oxidation states and polyatomic ions. Herein we present a method to teach chemical nomenclature to students in an introductory chemistry course that utilizes the discovery-learning model. Science Related Sites.
