Why build your own compound flashcards

Memorizing ionic and covalent compounds, their formulas, and their common names is easier when each one is a card you review on a schedule. Most printable sets online cover a generic syllabus, so chemical compounds flashcards work better when they come from your own textbook and lecture notes.

Turn a chapter PDF or slide deck into a full compound deck in one upload
Front-and-back cards for names, formulas, and common names
Spaced repetition that focuses review on the compounds you miss

Example general chemistry compound flashcards

What is the chemical formula for table salt?NaCl, sodium chloride, an ionic compound formed from Na+ and Cl- ions.

What is the formula for calcium carbonate?CaCO3, the main component of limestone, chalk, and marble.

What is the common name for NaHCO3?Sodium bicarbonate, also called baking soda.

Name the compound with formula H2SO4.Sulfuric acid, a strong acid that releases two hydrogen ions per molecule.

Why is water (H2O) a polar covalent compound?Oxygen pulls shared electrons closer than hydrogen does, so the molecule has a partial negative and a partial positive end.

Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or photos of textbook pages. Text in images is read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition

Each card is scheduled so the compounds you forget come back sooner, and the ones you know fade into longer intervals.

Study anywhere

Review cards in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds export to Anki and CSV for studying in other apps.

How it works

Upload your source

Add the chapter PDF, lecture slides or a photo of your notes that cover the compounds on your exam.

Generate your cards

The AI pulls out names, formulas, and properties and turns them into front and back flashcards.

Review on schedule

Study the deck with spaced repetition and edit any card that does not match what your instructor taught.

Once the cards are generated, spaced repetition brings back the compounds you miss more often. Free accounts get 3 generations per month and study in the browser, while Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Frequently asked questions

How do I memorize chemical compound names and formulas?

Pair each name with its formula on one card and quiz yourself in both directions, name to formula and formula to name. Review the cards daily in short sessions so spaced repetition can work.

What should a chemical compounds flashcard show on the front?

Put a single prompt on the front, such as a formula, a common name, or a property like the bond type. Keep the back to the answer plus one short reason, such as the ions that form the compound.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.

Can I export my compound flashcards to Anki?

Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus includes Anki and CSV export for $39/year or $7.99/month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
