This document discusses naming non-metal binary compounds using prefixes and suffixes. It provides examples of common non-metal binary compounds like CO2, CO, H2O, and P2O5. The prefixes used are mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, and hexa to denote the number of each element present. The second element always ends in -ide. Examples given are carbon dioxide for CO2, carbon monoxide for CO, dihydrogen monoxide for H2O, and diphosphorus pentoxide for P2O5. The document encourages practicing naming non-metal binary compounds from their formulas and writing formulas from their names.

1. Naming Binary
Compounds Part III
Non Metal Binary Compounds

2. Objectives
• Name simple binary compounds using
their formulae.
• Given the name, write the formula of a
simple binary compounds.

3. What Are Non Metal Binary
Compounds?
• Non metal binary compounds are ones that both
parts are made up of non metals.
• Examples: CO2, CO, H2O, P2O5 etc.
• For these you will need to use prefixes on one or
both of the elements.
• You still end the second element in -ide

4. Prefixes
• 1 = mono
• 2= di
• 3 = tri
• 4 = tetra
• 5 = pent
• 6 = hex
• 7 = sept
• 8 = oct

5. Example
• CO2 = carbon dioxide
• Note: If the first element is a single no
prefix is needed.
• P2O5 = diphosphorus pentoxide

6. Try It Yourself
• Examples
• CO
• H2O and the answer is not water
• SO2
• Pause the video and try them

7. Answers
• carbon monoxide
• dihydrogen monoxide
• sulfur dioxide
