Dihydrogen monoxide parody oxygen atom. Literally, the term "dihydrogen monoxide" means "two hydrogen, one oxygen", consistent with its molecular formula: the prefix "" in "dihydrogen" means "two", the prefix "" in "monoxide" means "one", and an oxide is an oxygen atom attached to another atom in an ionic compound. Using chemical nomenclature, various names for water are in common use within the scientific community. Some such names include "hydrogen oxide", as well as an alkali name of "hydrogen hydroxide", and several acid names such as "hydric acid", "hydroxic acid", "hydroxyl acid", and "hydroxilic acid". The term "hydroxyl acid" used in the original text
Caesium oxide Caesium oxide Caesium oxide (IUPAC name) or cesium oxide describes inorganic compounds composed of caesium and oxygen. The following binary (containing only Cs and O) oxides of caesium are known: CsO, CsO, CsO, and CsO. Both the oxide and suboxides are brightly coloured. The species CsO forms yellow-orange hexagonal crystals. Caesium oxide is used in photocathodes to detect infrared signals in devices such as image intensifiers, vacuum photodiodes, photomultipliers, and TV camera tubes L. R. Koller described the first modern photoemissive surface in 1929–30 as a layer of caesium on a layer of caesium oxide on a layer of silver.
