In order to name an acid when given the formula, follow these steps:
1. Identify the anion. Do this by removing the hydrogen(s) from the formula (is HIGHLY recommended you learn the names of various compounds and polyatomic ions for this reason).
HX --> H+ + X-n Or Cation (H+) + Anion
(For acids, hydrogen will usually be the cation, with the main exception of NH4+).
2. Name the acid. Now that the anion has been identified, the acid can be named. Follow the rules below depending on the anion name's ending or suffix:
Anion ends with "-ide": Add the prefix "hydro-" and the suffix "-ic acid".
Hydro-element name-ic acid
Anion ends with "-ate": Add the suffix "-ic acid".
Element name-ic acid
Anion ends with "-ite": Add the suffix "-ous acid".
Element name-ous acid
**NOTE: If the anion has phosphorous, add "-or" before the new suffix; if the anion has sulfur, add "-ur" before the new suffix.**
"There are many types of acid.
HCl is a strong acid and is very common.
That is hydrochloric acid.

I read recently about acids, and they had a table about some important acids-
Hydrochloric acid: HCl (in a molecule: 1 hydrogen, 1 chlorine)
Nitric ": HNO3 (1 hydrogen, one nitrogen, and three oxygen)
Sulfuric ": H2SO4 (two hydrogen, one sulfur, 4 oxygen)
Carbonic ": H2CO3 (2 hydro., one carbon, 3 oxygen)
Phosphoric ": H3PO4 (3 hydro., 1 phosphorus, 4 oxygen)
If the name of the polyatomic ion ends in -ate change the ending to -ic acid.
Examples: acetate --> acetic acid, perchlorate --> perchloric acid
(slight variations: sulfate --> sulfuric acid, phosphate --> phosphoric acid)
If the name of the name ends in -ite, change the ending to -ous acid
Examples: nitrite --> nitrous acid, hypochlorite --> hypochlorous acid
(slight variations: sulfite --> sulfurous acid, phosphite --> phosphorous acid)
If the name of the polyatomic ion ands in -ide, a hydro- at the beginning and change the end to -ic acid.
Examples: cyanide --> hydrocyanic acid, azide --> hydrazoic acid.
In order to name an acid when given its formula, follow these steps:
1. Identify the anion. It is HIGHLY recommended you remember different polyatomic ions and such in order
Acid --> Cation + Anion (typically H+ + Anion)
2. Name the acid. Since acids are named based on the anion, we can look at the ending (suffix)of the anion's name. Apply the following when naming an acid.
Ends with "-ite": replace with "-ous acid".
element name-ous acid
Ends with "ide": replace with "-ic acid"; also place prefix "hydro-" in front of element name.
Hydro-element name-ic acid
Ends with "-ate": replace with "-ic acid".
element name-ic acid
**NOTE: if the element contains sulfur or phosphorus, add "-ur" (sulfur) or "-or" (phosphorus) BEFORE the new suffix is placed. This results in changes of the stem name for the anion.**
It depends on the nature of the acid. If it is an acid of a halide, it is simple hydro + the halide followed by -ic. Ex: HCl = hydrochloric acid; HF = hydrofluoric acid; HI = hydroiodic acid. If it has oxygens in it, then it is based on the -ate which become -ic and the -ite becomes -ous. Ex: HClO3 = chloric acid because ClO3 is chlorate. HClO2 = chlorous acid because ClO2 is chlorite. H3PO4 is phosphoric because PO4 is phosphate and H3PO3 is phosphorous acid because PO3 is phosphite.
There maybe two things to consider: psychological (psychospiritual intervention) and biological(medical solution with psychotherapy). Both would require processing.
Shorten hydrogen to hydro, then use the other non-metal name then add ic
eg Hydrogen chloride - hydrochloric acid
Acid is not an element, it's a characteristic of an element.
a binary acid is a molecular compound in which hydrogen is combined with a second non-metallic element an example would be Halogens acids.
The names of binary acids do not begin with bi. The names of binary acids being with the "hydro" prefix, then the root of the nonmetal element, then they end with "ic".
one, and binary compounds don't always contain hydrogen, just 2 different elements
First of all: oxoacids is preferred over oxyacidsBinary acids are certain molecular compounds in which hydrogen is combined with ONE second nonmetallic element. (They are also called hydracids)Examples: HF, HCl, HBr, HI, H2O, H2SThe names of binary acids begin with hydro- followed by the name of the other element modified to end with -ic (like in hydrochloric acid).Binary Acids are one of two classes of acids, the second being the Ternary Acids.The Ternary acids either consist of a hydrogen, oxygen, and one other nonmetal element, called the oxoacids (like HNO3) or hydrogen and two other nonmetal elements (like HCN).Answer:So:binary acids: hydrogen + one (nonmetallic) element (like HCl, H2S)andoxo-acids: hydrogen + oxygen + one (nonmetallic) element (like HNO3, H2CO3)
Barium chloride is the binary compound name for BaCl2.

Yes.
A binary name is the scientific name for an organism consisting of its genus and species, for example, Homo sapiens.
The name given to the monomers of proteins is amino acids.
Binary pairDouble starOptical double star
Because if it were not, then the name of the system would have to be changed.
Binary ionic compounds are named by writing the name of the action, followed by the name of the anion. Potassium bromide is an example of an ionic compound.
They can reproduce by binary fission which is an asexual exponenetial growth.
