Give the name or chemical formula, as appropriate, for each 
of the following acids: (b) HBr

Accepted Answer

Now, for HBR we have on binary acid because it possesses no oxygen. Remember the rule for naming binary assets is the prefix is hydro, the suffix is acid. And then we just look at the non metal that is not hydrogen for the base name. Since it's a bro mean the base name would be bros. So this would be called hydro bronek acid. For H three P 04, it has an oxygen. So it's an oxy acid for oxy acids. We look at the poly atomic ion involved, which would be phosphate ion. And remember for phosphate, if it ends with eight, we changed the ending to take acid. So this would become foss for IQ acid. So that would mean that option D is the correct name for both HbR and H three P 04, which respectively are hydroponic acid and phosphoric at
