Silver nitrate is AgNO3 so it is not a binary compound as it contains three elemnts. The term binary ionic is unusual - chemists normally say a binary compound, binary ionic may be taken to mean just two sorts of ions in which case it would be classified as a binary ionic as ther are two ions Ag+ and NO3-
