D-flat, F, A-flat for the triad
For an A-sharp major chord: A# Cx E# (the # represents sharp or a half step above the note, and x represents double sharp or a whole step above the note) For A-sharp minor chord: A# C# E# Because A# major has 4 sharps and 3 double-sharps, a piece would probably never be written in this key. B-flat major, with just 2 flats would be much easier to read, and the chord would be: B-flat, D-natural, F-natural
Some people insist that a chord is three or more notes played together. Others insist that even two notes still make a chord. Opinions differ, and it is dependent on the terminology people wish to use to describe a chord.
If you're just playing the notes in order while you're making a chord, you're "strumming". If you're playing two or more notes within a chord configuration, you're playing a "triad".
A minor chord (triad, at least) is the first, third, and fifth notes of any minor scale played at the same time.
No such major has b flat and e flat.
The notes together depend on which type of C chord you want to play. C Major Notes are C, E, G C Minor Notes are C, E flat, G C Diminished Notes are C, E flat, and G flat C Augmented Notes are C, E, G sharp.

Hi, It is called an Arpeggio (or a broken chord). For example: C major: C E G C(8va). When these notes played separately, they form the C major arpeggio.

1-3-5 of a major scale make up the tonic CHORD.

Depends on what form of the minor scale you're using, and there are a great variety of options in any case, but here are some basics. (i) e-minor (e, g, b) (ii) f#-diminished (f#, a, c) or f#-minor (f#, a, c#). The latter deviates from the scale slightly, but is a common alteration. (III) G-major (g, b, d) (iv) a-minor (a, c, e), or sometimes altered to A-major (a, c#, e) (V) B-major (b, d#, f#) or b-minor (b, d, f#). The latter is the one that technically fits within the natural minor scale, but the former is more commonly used, because it leads easily back to the tonic (i). (VI) C-major (c, e, g) (VII) D-major (d, f#, a) Most commonly used chords are tonic (i, e-minor) and dominant (V, B-major). ii and iv chords lead easily into the dominant, and III is also moderately common because it is the relative major key. If you need more than this, you should pick up a music theory book.
A major chord is just a triad (3 notes, the 1st being 3 whole steps away from the 2nd, and the 2nd being 3 whole steps way from the 3rd). For example a major C chord consists of the notes C E and G. A minor C chord consists of C Eflat and G. In a minor chord the middle note (a.k.a the third, because its 3 steps away from the first note) is taken down a half step (E to Eflat). Hope this helps. There's a little misinformation in the above account. The notes are correct; a C major chord is constructed from the notes C, E, G. But the step counts are wrong. (On the guitar, two frets = 1 step; 1 fret = 1/2 step.) In the construction of a major chord you move TWO steps from the root note to find the second note (which is a major 3rd of the root). Then you move up a step and a half (three frets) from this note to find the third note of the chord (which is a perfect fifth of the root). So, again with the C major chord, we have the following - Start with C, move up two steps (four frets) to E, move up 1&1/2 steps (three frets) to G. Those are your notes - C, E, G. For minor chords, start with the root note, move up 1 & 1/2 steps (three frets) for the second note, and then move up two steps (four frets) for the third note. So, for A minor, we have the following: A, move up 1 & 1/2 steps (three frets) to C, and finally move up two steps (four frets) to E. Those are your notes - A, C, E. To be thorough, let's harmonize the C major scale. The scale is composed of the following notes: C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C. To form the chords of this scale, start with a note on the scale and then move up twice in diatonic 3rds to get all three notes of the chord. So the chords in the key of C major are these: C major: C, E, G. D minor: D, F, A. E minor: E, G, B. F major: F, A, C. G major: G, B, D. A minor: A, C, E. B diminished: B, D, F. The 7th chord (B diminished) is weird because all other chords involve 1 &1/2 steps and 2 steps to establish the notes of the chord. But for the 7th chord the notes are pushed together, so we have a 1 &1/2 step (three frets), followed by another 1 & 1/2 step (three frets). The third note of the chord is not a perfect fifth of the root, as it is in all the other chords. Rather, it's a diminished 5th, which generates a really dissonant sound. In rock, diminished chords are commonly replaced with minor chords. There's only one note difference, and minor chords are easier to play.
The notes are F-G-Ab-Bb-C-Db-E-F It is quite easy to form a harmonic minor scale. Begin with the Tonic Major (in this case, F major). F-G-A-Bb-C-D-E-F Flatten the 3rd and the 6th notes by one semitone In this case A becomes Ab and D becomes Db. The descending notes in the harmonic scale are the same as the ascending notes (but obviously in reverse!) so F-E-Db-C-Bb-Ab-G-F
The tonic, the submediant and the dominant (1, 3 and 5).
