Acid Names and Formulas
Acid Names and Formulas
sulfuric acid***   H2 SO4  
🗑
sulfurous acid**   H2 SO3  
🗑
phosphoric acid***   H3 PO4  
🗑
phosphorous acid**   H3 PO3  
🗑
carbonic acid***   H2 CO3  
🗑
hydrogen carbonate**   H CO3 (-1). This is an acid because it can lose that H to become CO3 (-2).  
🗑
hydrochloric acid***   HCl(aq)  
🗑
hydrobromic acid**   HBr(aq)  
🗑
hydroiodic acid**   HI(aq)  
🗑
hydrofluoric acid**   HF(aq)  
🗑
nitric acid***   H NO3  
🗑
nitrous acid**   H NO2  
🗑
acetic acid**   CH3COOH (the acidic H is on the right)  
🗑
periodic acid   H IO4  
🗑
iodic acid*   H IO3  
🗑

🗑
chromic acid*   H2 CrO4  
🗑
chromous acid*   H CrO2  
🗑

What are the five hydro___ic acids? What's the oddball one?   HI, HF, HCl, HBr (all aqueous). Hydrocyanic acid (HCN) has a polyatomic anion, cyanide (CN-). The first four are more important.  
🗑
H ClO4   perchloric acid**  
🗑
H ClO3   chloric acid**  
🗑
H ClO2   chlorous acid**  
🗑
H ClO   hypochlorous acid**  
🗑
If an anion is hypo___ite, its corresponding acid is   hypo___ous acid  
🗑
If an anion is ___ate, its corresponding acid is   ___ic acid  
🗑
If an anion is ___ide, it's corresponding acid is   hydro___ic acid  
🗑
If an anion is per___ate, its corresponding acid is   per___ic acid  
🗑
If an anion is ___ite, its corresponding acid is   ___ous acid  
🗑
What is the anion in a hypo___ous acid?   hypo___ite  
🗑
What is the anion in hydro___ic acid?   ___ide  
🗑
What is the anion in ___ic acid?   ___ate  
🗑
What is the anion in per___ic acid?   per___ate  
🗑
What is sulfuric acid's anion?   sulfate, SO4 (-2)  
🗑
When carbonic acid loses an H, what's the resulting anion?   hydrogen carbonate, HCO3(-1)  
🗑
When carbonic acid loses 2 H's, what's the resulting anion?   carbonate, CO3 (-2)  
🗑
When phosphoric acid loses all its H's, what's the resulting anion?   phosphate, PO4 (-3)  
🗑
When nitric acid loses its hydrogen, what's the resulting anion?   nitrate, NO3 (-1)  
🗑
When acetic acid loses it's acidic H, what's the resulting anion?   acetate, CH3COO-  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
