The the number of electrons in a principle energy level follows the formula 2(n)^2, where n is the principle energy level number.

When the e's of metals are excited, they move to outer energy levels, then when they move back, they give off light energy. When e's of nonmetals are excited, they absorb heat, when the excitement decreases, they give off heat, because the energy wavelength is not from the visible spectrum.

It is the "building up" principle...it tells you how electrons fill orbitals, successively: they will fill the lowest energy orbital available, and when multiple orbitals are present in a subshell, one electron goes into each orbital, until each orbital has an electron, then a second electron pairs up in each orbital. (use the hand drawn filling mnemonic to know the the order of energy for the subshells)

How do you name non-transition metal ions (i.e. those of colums I and II)?
You just use their name...you don't need to indicate oxidation state, because each ion has only 1 possible oxidation state.
