Finally, the nomenclature of acids is more complicated than is worth learning in an introductory course. So rather than struggle with a lot of rules you will never use, learn these five common acids (also listed in your study guide):
| hydrochloric acid | HCl |  |
| nitric acid | HNO3 |  |
| sulfuric acid | H2SO4 |  |
| phosphoric acid | H3PO4 |  |
| acetic acid | CH3COOH |  |
