The name of
Concept introduction:
Ternary compounds are the majority of acids. These compounds contain three different elements that are hydrogen and two other non-metals. If one of the non-metals is oxygen, then those compounds or acids are known as oxoacid. These are the combination of hydrogen ions and oxoanions.
The name of an oxoacid comes from the central element of the oxyanion or root name of the oxyanion name.
When the name of polyatomic ion is ended with “-ite”, then the name of oxyanion is ended with “-ous” whereas when the name of polyatomic ion is ended with “-ate”, then the name of oxyanion is ended with “-ic”.

Concept introduction:
The compounds which are formed between two elements are known as binary compounds and if one element is metal and another is non-metal, then the binary compound are made up of ions, known as binary ionic compounds. The compound in which hydrogen is combined with a non-metal is known as binary acids.
In naming binary acids, hydro- prefix is used and name of the non-metal is modified with an
“-ic” ending.
