Questions and Answers

What are three rules for naming acids?

Anion ends in 'ate', becomes 'ous'. (correct)

Anion ends in 'ite', becomes 'ic'. (correct)

Anion ends in 'ide', gets prefix 'hydro' and suffix 'ic'. (correct)

Anion ends in 'ene' and becomes 'ic'.

What is the first rule for naming acids?

Anion ends in 'ide', gets prefix 'hydro' and suffix 'ic' followed by the acid.

Study Notes

Naming Acids

Rule 1: If the anion ends in "ide," add the prefix "hydro" and use the suffix "ic" for the acid name.
Rule 2: For anions ending in "ite," use the anion stem followed by "ous" to name the acid.
Rule 3: For anions ending in "ate," use the anion stem with the suffix "ic" to name the acid.

Formulas of Acids

Formulas for acids are derived from the established naming rules, ensuring accurate representation based on the anion's characteristics.

Naming Bases

Bases are named by stating the cation first, followed by the name of the anion, following standard nomenclature practices.
