For binary acids, use 'hydro' + base name of the anion + -ic ending + acid

For oxyacids with -ite ending, use base name of the anion + -ous ending + acid

For oxyacids with -ate ending, use base name of the anion + -ic ending + acid

For binary acids, use 'per' + base name of the anion + -ic ending + acid

Polar covalent bonds share electrons equally, while pure covalent bonds share electrons unequally.

Polar covalent bonds share electrons unequally, while pure covalent bonds share electrons equally.

Both types of bonds share electrons equally.

Pure covalent bonds do not share electrons at all.

Acids use hydrogen as the first element, covalent compounds do not.

Covalent compounds use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms, acids do not.

Acids are named based on their anion, covalent compounds are named based on the elements present.

All of the above
