We must use prefixes to specify how many of each element are present in the formula. A prefix is used for each element except when the first element has only one. Never start the name with "mono". See examples below. The following prefixes are used in covalent compounds: Formula Name nitrogen dioxide dinitrogen trioxide NO2 mono- means 1 N203 di- means carbon tetrachloride tri- means 3 dichlorine monoxide Cl20 S2C12 tetra- means 4 disulfur dichloride penta- means hexa- 5 meansarrow_forward
