Brief Explanations
For binary acids (non - oxygen containing acids), the naming convention is "hydro - [root of non - metal] - ic acid". For oxyacids (acids containing oxygen), the naming is based on the polyatomic ion. If the polyatomic ion ends with "-ate", the acid is "-ic acid" and if it ends with "-ite", the acid is "-ous acid".
- \(H_2S(aq)\): It is a binary acid. The non - metal is sulfur. So, it is named hydro sulfur ic acid.
- Hydroiodic acid: The formula for hydroiodic acid (binary acid with iodine) is \(HI(aq)\).
- Hydrophosphoric acid: The formula for hydrophosphoric acid (binary acid with phosphorus) is \(H_3P(aq)\).
- \(HNO_3\): The polyatomic ion is \(NO_3^-\) (nitrate). So, it is nitric acid.
- \(HNO_2\): The polyatomic ion is \(NO_2^-\) (nitrite). So, it is nitrous acid.
- \(H_2SO_4\): The polyatomic ion is \(SO_4^{2 - }\) (sulfate). So, it is sulfuric acid.
- \(H_2SO_3\): The polyatomic ion is \(SO_3^{2 - }\) (sulfite). So, it is sulfurous acid.
- \(H_3PO_4\): The polyatomic ion is \(PO_4^{3 - }\) (phosphate). So, it is phosphoric acid.
- \(H_2CO_3\): The polyatomic ion is \(CO_3^{2 - }\) (carbonate). So, it is carbonic acid.
- \(HClO\): The polyatomic ion is \(ClO^-\) (hypochlorite). So, it is hypochlorous acid.
- \(HClO_2\): The polyatomic ion is \(ClO_2^-\) (chlorite). So, it is chlorous acid.
- \(HClO_3\): The polyatomic ion is \(ClO_3^-\) (chlorate). So, it is chloric acid.
