  2. IUPAC numerical multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_numerical_multiplier

    "mono-" is from Greek monos = "alone". "un" = 1 and "nona-" = 9 are from Latin. The others are derived from Greek numbers. The forms 100 and upwards are not correct Greek. In Ancient Greek, hekaton = 100, diakosioi = 200, triakosioi = 300, etc. The numbers 200-900 would be confused easily with 22 to 29 if they were used in chemistry.

    Unlike derivational suffixes, English derivational prefixes typically do not change the lexical category of the base (and are so called class-maintaining prefixes). Thus, the word do, consisting of a single morpheme, is a verb, as is the word redo, which consists of the prefix re-and the base root do.

    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 K 2 O, potassium (K) is a metal and therefore its proper name is potassium oxide , rather than potassium monoxide.

  9. Monomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomorphism

    A left-invertible morphism is called a split mono or a section. However, a monomorphism need not be left-invertible. For example, in the category Group of all groups and group homomorphisms among them, if H is a subgroup of G then the inclusion f : H → G is always a monomorphism; but f has a left inverse in the category if and only if H has a ...
