Chemistry | 3 Simple Rules for Naming Acids!

The video tutorial explains the rules for naming acids based on the suffix of their anions. It covers three main rules: for anions ending in 'ide', add 'hydro' and change 'ide' to 'ic acid'; for anions ending in 'ate', drop 'ate' and add 'ic acid'; and for anions ending in 'ite', drop 'ite' and add 'ous acid'. The tutorial also highlights exceptions and common examples, such as halogens and strong acids.
