(a)
Interpretation:
Formula and name of the acids related to cyanide ion has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
One of the important class of compounds is acids. Prefix “hydro-“ is added for naming an acid and the end is changed as “-ic” instead of “-ide” followed by acid. Naming this way represent that the compounds are present in water.
Polyatomic anions that contain oxygen has the name usually ending with “-ate” and “-ite”. Acid formed form the polyatomic anions are named by replacing the suffix with “-ic” and “-ous” for “-ate” and “-ite” respectively followed by the word “acid”.
(b)

Formula and name of the acids related to nitrate ion has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Refer part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
Formula and name of the acids related to phosphate ion has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
