Why is it important for you to know the properties and chemical formulas of molecular and ionic compounds? How will this affect your ability to choose one product over another or make decisions about whether to use a certain substance like bleach or drain cleaner? How has learning about atomic structure and compounds changed your understanding of the world around you?

Explanation:

It is important to know the properties and chemical formulas of ionic and molecular compounds because, knowledge of the properties of a compound aids you in deciding how to use the compound, how to store it and how dangerous it can be. Knowledge of its formula is the first step towards identifying its properties since most chemicals occur in groups having similar chemical/physical properties.

Knowledge of the chemical properties and formula of bleach and drain cleaner will help you to decide which product is a better cleaning agent based on its chemical composition. This will help you as the user to make  better decision.

Learning about atomic structure has made me to understand that all matter in the universe are composed of atoms. indeed, certain occurrences in nature can only be explained on the basis of atoms involved.
