Here are some examples:
* Chloride (Cl⁻)
* Fluoride (F⁻)
* Bromide (Br⁻)
* Iodide (I⁻)
* Oxide (O²⁻)
* Sulfide (S²⁻)
* Nitride (N³⁻)
* Phosphide (P³⁻)
There are a few exceptions to this rule, such as:
* Cyanide (CN⁻) - This is a polyatomic anion (containing multiple atoms)
* Hydroxide (OH⁻) - This is also a polyatomic anion
However, in general, if you see an ion name ending in "-ide", it's safe to assume it's a monatomic anion.
