If you’re anything like me (and pray that you aren’t), one of your favorite things in the whole world is to name chemical compounds.  I just sit and name compounds all day long, happy in the knowledge that one day the world will need a compound naming guru to save our species.  With these worksheets, you, too, can be a naming guru.  Your parents will be so proud.
