When working with inorganic acids, always start with the `ate' polyatomic ion. example: CO3 has a 2- charge so 2 hydrogens will be needed: +1 2-
H2CO3 this would be named: carbonic acid The six most common acids we use are given next. They all end in `ic' HbrO3 bromic acid H3PO4 phosphoric acid HClO3 chloric acid H2SO4 sulfuric acid HNO3 nitric acid H2CO3 carbonic acid Use these as starting points for the alternative acid (and their names)

Rules for Naming Acids/Writing their Formulas
Rule 1: all acids must contain hydrogen
Rule 2: acids with `ic' suffix represent natural `ate' polyatomic ions HBrO3 bromic acid
Rule 3: when all oxygen atoms are removed, add `hydro' prefix to name HBr hydrobromic acid HCl hydrochloric acid
Rule 4: when an extra oxygen is added, add a `per' prefix to name HBrO4 perbromic acid HClO4 perchloric acid
Rule 5: when 1 oxygen is taken away (from `ate' ion number), change the `ic' suffix to `ous'
HbrO2 bromous acid HClO2 chlorous acid
Rule 6: when 2 oxygens are taken away (from `ate' ion number), change the `ic' suffix to `ous' and add a `hypo' prefix
HBrO hypobromous acid HClO hypochlorous acid

LETS C HOW 2 NAME SOME INORGANIC ACIDS....!!!!
HClO is an acid involving a polyatomic ion. You MUST recognize the polyatomic ion in the formula. There is no other way to figure out the name. If you don't recognize the polyatomic, then you're sunk without a trace.
The polyatomic ion is ClO¯ and its name is hypochlorite. Any time you see the "ite" suffix, you change it to "ous" and add the word acid.
The name of HClO is hypochlorous acid.

HClO2 has the ClO2¯ polyatomic ion in it. The name of this ion is chlorite.
Since the "ite" suffix is used, it gets changed to "ous."
The name of HClO2 is chlorous acid.

HClO3 has the ClO3¯ polyatomic ion and its name is chlorate. Any time you know the "ate" ending is used on the polyatomic, you use "ic" when you write the corresponding acid formula.
The name of HClO3 is chloric acid.

HClO4 has the ClO4¯ polyatomic ion and its name is perchlorate.
Since the "ate" suffix is used, it gets changed to "ic."
The name of HClO4 is perchloric acid.
