1. Monoxide

   A monoxide is any oxide containing only one atom of oxygen. A well known monoxide is carbon monoxide; see carbon monoxide poisoning. The prefix mono (Greek for "one") is used in chemical nomenclature. In proper nomenclature, the prefix is not always used in compounds with one oxygen atom. Generally, when the oxygen is bonded to a nonmetal, the prefix mono is used. However when the oxygen atom bonds to a metal, the prefix is dropped. For instance, in the compound K2O, potassium (K) is a metal and therefore its proper name is potassium oxide, rather than potassium monoxide. Among monoxides, carbon monoxide is neutral, germanium(II) oxide is distinctly acidic, and both tin(II) oxide and lead(II) oxide are amphoteric.

1. Monoxide

   A monoxide is any oxide containing just one atom of oxygen in the molecule. For example, Potassium oxide, has only one atom of oxygen, and is thus a monoxide. Water is also a monoxide; see dihydrogen monoxide hoax. A well known monoxide is carbon monoxide; see carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of the members of the Periodic Table form oxides when oxidized. There are two main types of oxides: monoxides and dioxides. Monoxides such as silicon monoxide only exist at high temperatures. Among monoxides, CO is neutral, GeO is distinctly acidic, and SnO and PbO are amphoteric.

   Inside there are highly effective, catalytic gas burners which burn the gas superbly.
