Naming Acids and Bases Rules

The video tutorial explains how to name acids and bases. It starts with an introduction to the topic, followed by detailed rules for naming acids based on the anion endings: 'ide', 'ite', and 'ate'. Examples are provided to illustrate these rules. The tutorial also covers naming bases, focusing on the addition of hydroxide to positive ions. The video encourages viewers to practice naming on their own using an ion chart.

What is the general rule for naming bases?

• Add 'hydro' to the positive ion.

• Add 'acid' to the positive ion.

• Add 'hydroxide' to the positive ion.

• Add 'ite' to the positive ion.

How do you name an acid when the anion ends with 'IDE'?

• Add 'ate' to the end.

• Add 'ic acid' to the end.

• Add 'hydro' to the beginning and 'ic acid' to the end.

• Add 'ous acid' to the end.

Which of the following is an example of an acid named using the 'IDE' rule?

• Acetic acid

• Hydrochloric acid

• Nitric acid

• Sulfurous acid

What suffix is added to an acid when the anion ends with 'ITE'?

• 'ate acid'

• 'ous acid'

• 'hydro acid'

• 'ic acid'

Which of the following acids is named using the 'ITE' rule?

• Sulfurous acid

• Nitric acid

• Perchloric acid

When the anion ends with 'ATE', what is the suffix added to the acid name?

• 'ous acid'

• 'ic acid'

• 'hydro acid'

• 'ide acid'

Which of the following is an example of an acid named using the 'ATE' rule?

• Sulfurous acid
