No, the metal is named first in binary ionic compounds. The name of the metal cation is followed by the name of the nonmetal anion, with the nonmetal's name ending in "-ide". For example, NaCl is named sodium chloride.
Binary ionic compounds are named by first stating the name of the cation (metal) followed by the name of the anion (nonmetal) with an -ide ending.
Binary ionic compounds are compounds composed of positively charged metal ions and negatively charged non-metal ions (anions). These ions are attracted to each other through electrostatic forces to form a stable compound. The name of the compound indicates the metal cation first followed by the non-metal anion.
Binary ionic compounds have 2 elements, the element on the left (cation) should be a metal (left side of the zig zag line), and the other element on the right should be nonmetal (right side of the zig zag line)Binary molecular compounds have 2 NON METAL elements
Binary molecular compounds are named using a system that involves using prefixes to indicate the number of each type of atom in the compound. The first element in the compound is named first, followed by the second element with an "-ide" ending. Prefixes such as "mono-" for one, "di-" for two, "tri-" for three, and so on, are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element present.
When naming an ionic compound, the name of the cation (metal or positively charged ion) goes first, followed by the name of the anion (nonmetal or negatively charged ion).
For naming a binary compound composed of a metal bonded to a nonmetal, the name of the metal is written first followed by the name of the nonmetal with the ending changed to "-ide." For example, sodium chloride is the name for the compound formed by sodium (metal) bonding with chlorine (nonmetal).
Binary ionic compounds are named by first stating the name of the cation (metal) followed by the name of the anion (nonmetal) with an -ide ending.
In naming a binary ionic compound, the name of the cation (metal) appears first, followed by the name of the anion (non-metal). The cation keeps its elemental name, while the anion's name is modified to end in "-ide".

Naming Binary Molecular CompoundsBinary molecular compounds are composed of only two elements. Examples are H2O, NO, SF6 etc. . Naming these binary compounds is a little bit more involved than naming salts. Why is this so? Molecular compounds are more difficult to name because the atoms combine through covalent and not ionic bonds. Therefore we cannot use the electrical neutrality rule for these compounds. Most molecular compounds are made from nonmetals. Sometimes these compounds have generic or common names (e.g., H2O is "water") and they also have systematic names (e.g., H2O, dihydrogen monoxide). The common name must be memorized. The systematic name is more complicated but it has the advantage that the formula of the compound can be deduced from the name. Simple binary compounds consist of only a few atoms. Systematic naming of these compounds follow the rules: * The elements , except for H, are are written in order of increasing group number (e.g., NO not ON) * The number of atoms of a given type is designated by a prefix such as di- , tri-, tetra- etc. (The exception to this rule is for the first atom: if the first atom is "mono" then no prefix for it is given.) (e.g., NO is nitrogen monoxide not mononitrogen monoxide)

hey i am in chem. now and this is a question on my worksheet my notes said that compound composed of 2 different element the total charge ot the cations = total charge of anions so if it helps i put yes they are always ionic but i gused so good luck to you
Metal first and ide added to nonmetal trailer. Sodium chloride. ============
Yes, for binary ionic compounds, the cation (metal) name comes first followed by the anion (nonmetal) name. The anion name typically has an "-ide" ending. For example, sodium chloride is composed of the cation sodium and the anion chloride.
HI is known as hydrogen iodide because it is a binary compound composed of hydrogen and iodine. In naming binary compounds where hydrogen is the first element, the name of the compound is simply "hydrogen" followed by the name of the second element with the ending "-ide," in this case, iodide.
