What are some words end with the prefix ac?

If the 'ac' ends the word, then it is a suffix, not a prefix. Prefixes by definition are added to the beginning of a root word.But as a suffix, '-ac' is the adjectival ending derived from the Greek, and therefore means "of, related, or pertaining to [the root]." Thus 'amnesia' becomes the adjective 'amnesiac', and the noun 'mania' becomes the adjective 'maniac'.
