I was just wondering becasue every example in my book had oxygen in it, but it didn't say anything about it.
Do all terandary ionic compoiunds have oxygen?

SUMMARY
All ternary ionic compounds do not necessarily contain oxygen. The term "ternary" refers to compounds composed of three different elements, which can include various combinations of metals and nonmetals. While many examples of ternary ionic compounds include oxygen, such as sulfates and nitrates, there are also examples like phosphides and arsenides that do not. Therefore, the presence of oxygen is not a defining characteristic of all ternary ionic compounds.
