Sagot :

Answer:

A. ide

Explanation:

Naming Acids

These anions usually have the ending “-ide.” As acids, these compounds are named starting with the prefix “hydro-,” then adding the first syllable of the anion, then the suffix “-ic.” For example, HCl, which is hydrogen and chlorine, is called hydrochloric acid.

Answer:

A. ide

Explanation:

When naming ionic compounds, the cation retains the same name as the element. The anion’s name is similar to the elemental name, but the ending of the name has been removed and replaced with “-ide.”
