(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The chemical formula of the given compound should be determined.

Concept Introduction: Binary acids are named by using the prefix ‘hydro-‘followed by the base name of the anion and then the suffix ‘-ic’ is used. In the case of oxoacids, the base name of oxoanion has the suffix ‘-ous’ or ‘-ic.

Answer to Problem 75A

The chemical formula of nitrous acid is HNO2 .

Explanation of Solution

Nitrous acid contains hydrogen ions and nitrite ions. If the anion name of an acid containing oxygen ends in ‘-ite’ then the name of the acid ends in ‘-ous’. So, in nitrous acid, the anion is a nitrite ion, hence the name HNO2 .
