  • Covalent Compounds & Cations: Understanding the Difference
    There is a misunderstanding in the question. Here's why:

    * Covalent compounds do not form cations and anions. They share electrons to form bonds, rather than transferring them like ionic compounds.

    * C3H8 is propane, a covalent compound. It consists of carbon and hydrogen atoms sharing electrons.

    Therefore, there is no Greek prefix to represent a cation in C3H8.
