Question

ami day: nomenclature for acids name correctly name the following acids according to the rules for naming binary acids and oxyacids. resources & notes included on additional pages. look! 1. h₂s 2. h₂c₂o₄ 3. hf 4. h₂b₄o₇ 5. h₃p 6. hio₃ 7. hcn (exception acid) 8. hclo₄ 9. h₂se 10. h₃po₃ 11. hcl 12. hclo₂ 13. h₃n 14. h₂sio₃ 15. hbr 16. hio₄

Explanation:

Step1: Classify acid type (binary/oxyacid)

Binary acids: $\ce{H2S}$, $\ce{HF}$, $\ce{H3P}$, $\ce{HCN}$, $\ce{H2Se}$, $\ce{HCl}$, $\ce{H3N}$, $\ce{HBr}$
Oxyacids: $\ce{H2CrO4}$, $\ce{H2B4O7}$, $\ce{HIO3}$, $\ce{HClO4}$, $\ce{H3PO3}$, $\ce{HClO2}$, $\ce{H2SiO3}$, $\ce{HIO4}$

Step2: Name binary acids (hydro- + root + -ic acid)

Apply naming rule to each binary acid.

Step3: Name oxyacids (based on oxyanion)

Use oxyanion suffix (-ate → -ic, -ite → -ous) for naming.

Step4: Handle exception acid

Use standard exception name for $\ce{HCN}$.

Answer:

1. Hydrosulfuric acid
