Are we communicating with elemental symbols now?

Oxy-Magnesium? Bismuth-Technetium Acid? Tungsten-Hydro-Astatine?

Well, the first one is actually quite common (usually written MgO). As far as I'm aware, none of the others are possible, although I would love to be proven wrong.

Also, Bismuth and Technetium are metallic and so HBiTc would be a hydride if it actually existed.

I would've said Magnesium-Oxide, but I was going via order.

Also, the second one would be an acid the way you wrote it, I believe. I thought metallicism didn't matter in that case?

but yes, I would understand it being a hydride as well.

Something involving bismuth and technetium... you pour it on your television and it cures its indigestion!

I don't think MEHTUL compounds can be acidic. All metals have solely positive oxidation states, and therefore a bonded hydrogen would have an oxidation number of -1 - which makes it a hydride.

Horribly.

Also, Nickspoon, that makes sense. I was incorrect.
