You should look at a Periodic Table such as this one: http://www.rsc.org/periodic-table/

What are some chemistry symbols with H?
Hydrogen.
Why do some element have unusual letter for their symbols?
some elements do not use their first letters of their English names as their symbols. The symbols for these elements may come from the names of the elements in a different language.
Why do the symbols for some elements seem to bear no relationship to the name for the element?
The symbols for elements are typically derived from their Latin or Greek names. Sometimes the symbols are based on old names or properties of the element, which may not directly relate to their modern English names. Over time, these symbols have become standardized and widely accepted in the field of chemistry.
Why do elements don't match their symbol?
the sybols come from latin and german he germans are big into chemistry and they named some of them and the romans were the first to find these elements and they named them in latin and we changed the real name but none of the symbols
Do some elements have several symbols?
yes
Where are the elements symbol derived?
The elemental symbols used in chemistry are derived from several sources. Some symbols are based on the Latin or Greek names of the elements. For example, the symbol for gold (Au) comes from the Latin word "aurum." Other symbols are derived from the English names of elements, such as the symbol for hydrogen (H). Additionally, some symbols are derived from the discoverer's name or a common property of the element.
How to prepare for the praxis chemistry content exam?
General Chemistry textbook is a good place to start. Wasn't really heavy on organic chemistry or biochemistry it seemed more a general chemistry exam to me. Make sure you know about elements in the periodic table, things like electron affinity etc. Also, know some basic kinetics, famous people in the history of chemistry.
Why do some element have symbol that are different from the English name of the elements?
Some like iron (fe) take thier symbols from the Latin names
Why do some symbols have one letter some have two letters and some have three letters?
Elements are give symbols consisting of letters, and these are related to the names of the elements (in some language at some date). There are 26 letters in many alphabets, but more than four times that number of elements. So it is necessary to use some mechanism to distinguish among elements with names that start with the same letter. Adding numbers is done to designate the number of atoms in a compound, the isotope, and so on. The best solutions is to use pairs of letters for most elements.

Are alchemical symbols of the occult?
In some ways, yes. Alchemy was a mix of chemistry, spirituality and magic.
