You will need some basic equipment in order to properly make your mead. You can find basic home brewing kits from brewing supply stores, and online. The kit should contain: A bucket or carboy to hold the fermenting mead. The container should also have an airlock on it to allow the gasses that are released during fermentation to escape the container while keeping it sealed from contamination. A hydrometer to allow you to calculate the alcohol by volume (ABV) level and see if the batch is still fermenting. A siphon to allow you to transfer the liquid without disturbing the sediment that builds up. Bottling equipment like a capper and glass bottles or a corker and wine bottles so you can bottle your finished mead. Different types of honey can add different flavor profiles to your mead, so choose one that you enjoy. Clover honey is the basic honey you'll find in the grocery store. It has the classic sweet honey taste, and is a great honey for mead making. You can choose different types of honey to alter the aromatics and the taste of your mead. Orange blossom honey will add flavor notes of oranges. Buckwheat honey has a strong flavor, similar to molasses. Wildflower honey can be a random mix of local floral sources, and the flavors can be impossible to predict. For a simple 1 gallon (3.8L) batch of mead, you'll need at least 3 pounds (1.4kg) of honey, so make sure you get enough! You can also manipulate and alter the flavor profile of your mead using fresh fruits and spices. Spices like nutmeg and clove, fruits like blueberries or cherries, and herbs like lemongrass and basil can dramatically change the flavor notes in your mead, and give it a unique character. Just be sure not to overpower the natural sweetness of the mead. Ginger, vanilla, citrus peels, coriander, cinnamon, nutmeg, even chocolate can be added to mead to change the characteristics of its taste and aromatics. Use fresh fruit instead of dried or dehydrated fruit as they can affect the fermentation process. Yeast is one of the three main ingredients for making mead, so it's important to choose the right one for your mead. White wine yeast ferments at a fast pace, and accents the honey characteristics of the mead. You can find white wine yeast and other yeasts at brewing supply stores and online. You can use other types of yeasts, but they will each have different results and flavor profiles. For example, champagne yeast will create a higher ABV, while red wine yeast is great for mead with lots of fresh fruit because it metabolizes fresh sugars better. You can also use standard bread yeast as an easy alternative that will give you a smooth mead without altering the character of the honey flavor. All of the equipment and utensils that you will use to make your mead must be completely sanitized. An easy way to do this is to boil all of the equipment you will be using for 5 minutes, or use a special sanitizer that comes with many homebrewing kits. Any bacteria or contamination that gets in can ruin an entire batch of mead. Sanitize any spoons, tubing, bottles, containers, or other utensils that you may use. Be sure to rinse your equipment of any cleaning solutions that you use, as this can introduce unwanted chemicals and ruin the taste of your mead.

Article: If your metal comes from group 3 (or higher) in the periodic table, you'll need to figure out its charge. The subscript numeral of the anion that the metal is paired with indicates the charge of a transition metal. Metals will have a positive charge, so in this case, you'll cross over the 3 from the O3 and write that Fe has a charge of +3. You can also do the reverse and write that O has a charge of -2. In many high-school- or college-level chemistry assignments, the metal's charge will be provided for you. Consult the periodic table if you need to find out the chemical code for the metal you're dealing with. Since Fe is iron and it has a charge of +3, you can write down Iron (III). Remember to only use the Roman numeral when you're writing out the ionic compound's name and not when writing the formula. Refer to the periodic table if you forget the anion name. Since O is oxygen, you can drop the "gen" ending and add the "-ide" ending. Call it "oxide." Anions always take the ide suffix. So, you'll name anions the same regardless of what type of metal they're paired with in an ionic compound. This part is no different from writing out the name of an ionic compound that doesn't have a transition metal. Combine the metal and non-metal names (Roman numeral included) to name the ionic compound: Fe2O3 = Iron (III) oxide. The 2 transition metals that do have a definite charge are zinc (Zn) and silver (Ag). So, the charge of the metal in ionic compounds with zinc or silver doesn't need to be borrowed from the subscript of the anion. Zinc always has a charge of +2 and silver always has a charge of +1.This means that you don't have to use Roman numerals or the older naming method in describing those elements.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Find out the charge of the metal. Name the metal and add a Roman numeral as needed. Name the non-metal by revising the suffix. Combine the names to generate the ionic compound name. Don't use Roman numerals when naming compounds with zinc or silver.
