If it was one little thing that you didn't get...we could probably help.

Teaching you the whole course in 5 days? Sorry but NS is the wrong place.

an ion is the charge of an element
a cation means that the ion has a positive charge
an anion means that the ion has a negative charge
if you have trouble forgetting cation and anion's charged think of it this way
cat=good(positive) for cation
ant=bad(negative) for anion
that helped me alot

Get off NS and start making notecards. Make notecards of all your notes, then study them for 2 days. Then do practice problems for 2 days,  If you can do that, you can pass. I passed my Organic Chemistry class, which is (pardon the arrogance) probably harder than whatever class it is you're in right now, using this method and I had less than a 50% coming into the final.

Organic Chem is nothing to fuck with.
Honestly, probably one of the toughest classes...

ions of an element have the same amount of neutrons and protons but a different amount of electrons.

ya like for example if you had Al3+ that would be an ion or cation (3+ is in superscript) and if you had Na- (- is in superscript) that would be an ion or an anion just look to see if there is a positive or negative symbol after the superscripted number

well ya see here you could try to study hardcore
but u prolly don't have a chance if u say ur ready to

Organic chemistry is nothing compared to physical chemistry and/or biochem.

I had the same problem last year. Know your refernce table 85% percent of the answers are in there believe it or not. and idk about you but an 85 is quite nice for chemistry
