Why is Al2O3 is named aluminum oxide without prefixes?
Aluminum oxide is an ionic compound. Prefixes are not used in naming ionic compounds, but are used in naming binary molecular compounds.
Why are prefixes not needed in naming ionic compounds?
Ions combine in only one ratio, so prefixes are not needed.
Why are prefixes not used in naming ionic compounds?
two ions can combine in only one combination
Do you use the naming prefixes when naming ionic compounds?
No, formulas of ionically bonded compounds can be figured out without prefixes and understanding of how many electrons are gained/lost. In covalent bonds, prefixes are needed and without them the formulas and quantities couldn't be determined.
When naming ionic bonds the non metals' ending is changed to what?
When naming ionic compounds, the non metals' ending is changed to "-ide". "Ionic bonds" do not have particular names.

Are Ionic compounds named using numerical prefixes?
yes
What is the method called for naming ionic compounds using Roman numerals?
I'm not sure if it has a name, but most call it 'naming ionic compounds with multiple ion charges'. I think that what you're looking for is the "Stock System."
Why do you put prefixes in front of molecular compositions but not ionic compounds?
Just because
Do Greek Prefixes appear in the names of ionic or covalent compounds?
because they are the 1st discoverers.
When naming binary ionic or covalent compounds change the suffix of the anions name to what?
"-ide"
What is a chemistry name for AL2O3?
Aluminum Trioxide, it is an ionic compound. Aluminum Oxide. It is an ionic compound, therefore no prefixes are used in naming.
