105) When naming binary molecular compounds, it is always unnecessary to use Greek prefixes.

106) From their position in the periodic table, we would predict that both oxygen and sulfur would have a charge of 2− in a binary ionic compound.

107) In the old system of naming ionic compounds formed from metals with two different charges, the suffix –ous is used for the higher charge, while the suffix –ic indicates the lower charge.

108) Polyatomic ions that contain oxygen attached to some other element are called oxoanions.

109) Nonelectrolytes are compounds which break apart into ions when dissolved in water.

110) A molecular compound is composed of atoms of a metal and a nonmetal.

111) Most molecular compounds remain as molecules when dissolved in water.

112) When a substance dissolves, heat is added to the compound in the solid state, and it is converted to the liquid state. When a substance melts, as in water, the substance becomes surrounded by solvent molecules, and no heat is added.

113) Methane, CH4, and acetic acid, CH3CO2H, are both acids because they both contain hydrogen.
