Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds 1. Prefixes are used to show many atoms of each element are present in the compound Prefixes used for Naming Binary Covalent Compounds

Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds 2. Second element is written with an –ide ending.

Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds 2. Second element is written with an –ide ending. ***All binary compounds, both ionic and covalent end in –ide. 3. The vowel at the end of the prefix is dropped when the name of the element begins with the same vowel. Example: monoxide, not monooxide

Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds 4. Mono is omitted if there is just a

Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds 4. Mono is omitted if there is just a single atom on the first element in the name. Example: carbon dioxide not monocarbon dioxide
