3. Covalent Compounds. These are formed from non-metals that share electrons. Because there are many sharing possibilities between two non-metals, the formula cannot be guessed unless we have a naming system that reveals the number of atoms involved.

When naming compounds, remember the following rules: Compounds containing only non-metal elements are named using Type III binary compound rules. These compounds are always neutral (not ions which have charges), and consist of only two elements (see acid naming below for compounds containing only non-metal elements,
