NAMING ACIDS (Ch. 2.8) Flashcards
Naming Acids
Contain H+ and an anion
BINARY ACIDS
- its anion ends in “_ide”
ex. Hydro____ic acid
Examples of Binary Acids:
- HCl
- HBr
- H2S
- Hydrochloric acid
- Hydrobromic acid
- Hydrosulfuric acid
OXYACIDS
- its anion ends in “_ate” or “_ite”
OXYACIDS:
If the anion ends in “_ate,” the acid ends in:
“_ic acid”
OXYACIDS:
If the anion ends in “_ite,” the acid ends in:
“_ous acid”
HNO3 (aq)
anion: NO3 ^- (nitrate)
- -> nitrIC acid
HNO2 (aq)
anion: NO2 ^- (nitrite)
- -> nitrOUS acid

anion: SO4 ^2- (sulfate)
- -> sulfurIC acid
