An acid can be defined as a substance that yields hydrogen ions (H + ) when dissolved in water. Example: HCl (hydrogen ion and chloride ion) Pure substance, hydrogen chlor ide Dissolved in water (H + Cl - ), hydro chlor ic acid 2.7 3) Naming acids Acids are divided into two categories when named: 1. Hydrogen + monoatomic ion (negatively charged)
An oxoacid is an acid that contains hydrogen, oxygen, and another element. H NO 3 Nitr ate ion nitr ic acid H 2 CO 3 Carbon ate ion carbon ic acid H 2 SO 4 Sulf ate ion sulfur ic acid HNO 3 Acids are divided into two categories when named: 2. Oxoacids (Hydrogen + polyatomic ion) Polyatomic ions Ends with -ate Ends with - ite Acids with polyatomic ions that ends with -ate
