Naming Binary Ionic Compounds

The video tutorial from MooMoo Math and Science explains how to name binary ionic compounds. It begins by defining binary ionic compounds as those consisting of two elements: a metal (cation) and a non-metal (anion). The video outlines the naming rules, where the metal is named first followed by the non-metal with an 'ide' suffix. Examples such as sodium chloride and magnesium oxide are provided to illustrate these rules. The video concludes with a motivational message about kindness.
