Molecular compounds are usually composed solely
of nonmetals. A binary molecular compound is one
in which the compound contains only two elements
(regardless of how many atoms are present of
each). When naming binary molecular compounds,
prefixes are used to specify the number of atoms of
each element. Take a moment to review some of
the prefixes shown here.
Prefix Number
mono
di
nona
one
three
tetra
four
penta five
hexa six
hepta seven
octa eight
nine
deca
two
ten
For example, SF6 is named sulfur hexafluoride.
Note that the prefix mono is not used in naming the
first element. Also note that the second element in
the name should end with the suffix ide.
