[SCIENCE] Common names for chemical compounds! (1 Viewer)

[Deliriously]

Im revising and i have realised i forgot the common names
could anyone list down some common names that are likely to appear?

For eg. i came across sulfuric acid and had completely forgotten the chemical formulae
i had to search it to find it is H2SO4

Thanks!

 

[Alkanes]

NaCl

 

[Queenroot]

HCl
CaCO3

 

[nightweaver066]

H2CO3 - carbonic acid
HNO3 - nitric acid
H2O - water
O2 - oxygen
H2 - hydrogen
C - carbon
CO2 - carbon dioxide
CO - carbon monoxide

 

[brent012]

H2CO3 - carbonic acid
HNO3 - nitric acid

I didn't even really remember those until sometime during year 12, unlikely you will need them in sc.

I used them and had to write chemical formulae with them back in year 9. I've already forgotten the format of the SC so i'm not too sure if those are relevant but these compounds are not too hard to remember..

Thanks for replying guys, ive found a good list in some notes:

Hydrochloric Acid HCl
Sulfuric Acid H2SO4
Sodium Chloride NaCl
Ammonia NH3
Calcium carbonate CaCO3
Nitric Acid HNO3

Don't be too phased out, you only need to know the simple ones.
