An oxide /ˈɒksaɪd/ is a chemical compoundthat contains at least one oxygen atom and one other element[1] in its chemical formula. "Oxide" itself is the dianion of oxygen, an O2–atom. Metal oxides thus typically contain an anion of oxygen in the oxidation state of −2. Most of the Earth's crust consists of solid oxides, the result of elements being oxidized by the oxygen in air or in water. Hydrocarboncombustion affords the two principal carbonoxides: carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Even materials considered pure elements often develop an oxide coating. For example, aluminium foil develops a thin skin of Al2O3(called a passivation layer) that protects the foil from further corrosion.[2] Individual elements can often form multiple oxides, each containing different amounts of the element and oxygen. In some cases these are distinguished by specifying the number of atoms as in carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and in other cases by specifying the element's oxidation number, as in iron(II) oxide and iron(III) oxide. Certain elements can form many different oxides, such as those of nitrogen.

A halide is a binary phase, of which one part is a halogen atom and the other part is an element or radical that is less electronegative(or more electropositive) than the halogen, to make a fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, astatide, or theoretically tennessidecompound. The alkali metals combine directly with halogens under appropriate conditions forming halides of the general formula, MX (X = F, Cl, Br or I). Many salts are halides; the hal-syllable in halide and halite reflects this correlation. All Group 1 metals form halides that are white solids at room temperature.

A oxide is a compound which contains at least one oxygen bonded to another atom..
A halide is a compound which contains at least one halogen (F, Cl, Br, I) bonded to another atom...
