Anions end in -ide if they are monatomic. Example: chlorine becomes "chloride." Polyatomic ions will have different suffixes.
if the negative ion is a single element, the end of its name changes to -ide

The typical suffix used for a negative ion is -ide as in chloride, oxide, sulfide, etc.
Negative ions are given the word 'ide' at the end.
The second element's name is changed so that it ends in the suffix -ide.
The suffix "ide" at the end of the name of an element typically indicates that the element is in the form of an anion or a negatively charged ion. For example, chloride (Cl-) is the anion form of chlorine.
When an element forms a negative ion, the name changes to IDE, fir example: chloride
-ide.
The name of an oxoanion ends with 'ate' when the central atom of it has the highest possible oxidation number. If it is slightly lesser (mostly 2), the common names of these compounds end with 'ite'. If the anion has no oxygen in it, usually it ends with 'ide'.
