HNO3 (Nitric Acid)
Oxyacid Endings:-ate
Change to -ic +acid
Examples:
Nitrate – Nitric AcidHNO3
Bromate- Bromic AcidHBrO3
Chlorate- Chloric AcidHClO3
-iteChange to -ous +acid
Examples:
Nitrite- Nitrous AcidHNO2
Sulfite- Sulfous AcidH2SO3
Hyporchlorite- Hypochlorous AcidHClO
Binary Acids:Certain molecular compounds in which hydrogen is combined with a second nonmetallic element.
Ex:HF
HCl
Binary Acid Endings:
Hydro (root)ic Acid
Examples:
BromineHBrHydrobromic Acid
