Answer 1

-ide that ite correct answer

Answer 2

Answer: -ide

Explanation:

A binary compound is a compound which is formed by combination of two atoms.

For Example: $NO$ is a binary covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between two atoms nitrogen and oxygen.

The nomenclature of covalent compound is given by:

1. The less electronegative element is written first.

2. The more electronegative element is written then, and a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on..

So, the IUPAC name for $NO$ is nitrogen monooxide.
