There are far more than 5 acids. There are, however, 6 (some sources say 8) strong acids.

They are:

Hydrochloric acid (HCl)

Hydrobromic acid (HBr)

Hydroiodic acid (HI)

Perchloric acid (HClO3)

Nitric acid (HNO3)

Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)

Some sources also list Chloric acid (HClO3) and Periodic acid (HIO4) as strong acids. There are hundreds of weak acids.

Common example include:

Acetic acid (CH3CO2H)

Formic acid (HCO2H)

Carbonic acid (H2CO3)

Phosphoric acid (H3PO4)

Hydrofluoric acid (HF)

Hydrosulfuric acid (H2S)

What is a 5 residue polypeptide?

Basically, proteins are long chains of amino acids, which are linked together through a chemical bond known as a peptide bond. They can be hundreds of amino acids in length. Peptides, which qualify as proteins, are just shorter chains of amino acids, generally between 2 and 100 amino acids. In biochemistry, amino acids are also referred to as residues; thus a 5 residue polypeptide is just a 5 amino acid long peptide, linked together with a peptide bond between each residue.
