In inorganic chemistry and materials chemistry, a ternary compound or ternary phase is a chemical compound containing three different elements. While some ternary compounds are molecular, e.g. chloroform (HCCl 3), more typically ternary phases refer to extended solids. The perovskites are a famous example. [1]
An oxyacid, oxoacid, or ternary acid is an acid that contains oxygen.Specifically, it is a compound that contains hydrogen, oxygen, and at least one other element, with at least one hydrogen atom bonded to oxygen that can dissociate to produce the H + cation and the anion of the acid.
This is a list of common chemical compounds with chemical formulae and CAS numbers, indexed by formula. This complements alternative listing at list of inorganic compounds . There is no complete list of chemical compounds since by nature the list would be infinite.
Ternary metal hydrides have the formula A x MH n, where A + is an alkali or alkaline earth metal cation, e.g. K + and Mg 2+. A celebrated example is K 2 ReH 9, a salt containing two K + ions and the ReH 9 2− anion. Other homoleptic metal hydrides include the anions in Mg 2 FeH 6 and Mg 2 NiH 4.
In chemistry, a hydride is formally the anion of hydrogen (H −), a hydrogen ion with two electrons. [1] In modern usage, this is typically only used for ionic bonds, but it is sometimes (and has been more frequently in the past) applied to all compounds containing covalently bound H atoms.
A chalcogenide is a chemical compound consisting of at least one chalcogen anion and at least one more electropositive element. Although all group 16 elements of the periodic table are defined as chalcogens, the term chalcogenide is more commonly reserved for sulfides, selenides, tellurides, and polonides, rather than oxides.

The nitride anion, N 3-ion, is very elusive but compounds of nitride are numerous, although rarely naturally occurring. Some nitrides have a found applications, [ 1 ] such as wear -resistant coatings (e.g., titanium nitride , TiN), hard ceramic materials (e.g., silicon nitride , Si 3 N 4 ), and semiconductors (e.g., gallium nitride , GaN).
A stannide can refer to an intermetallic compound containing tin combined with one or more other metals; an anion consisting solely of tin atoms or a compound containing such an anion, or, in the field of organometallic chemistry an ionic compound containing an organotin anion (e.g.see [1] an alternative name for such a compound is stannanide.)
