Question

How do I write the formula for: Ferric hydrogen sulphate, Tungsten (V) peroxide, Nitric acid and Aluminum acetate?

Answer 1

Ferric hydrogen sulphate - Fe(HSO4)2?
Tungsten (B) peroxide - W2(O2)5
Nitric Acid - HNO3 (aq)
Aluminum acetate - Al(C2H3O2)3 or Al(CH3COO)3?

Answer 2

Hello again lol

-ic suffix would be the higher valence, which is +3 for Fe. Ferric hydrogen sulfate would be Fe(HSO4)3.

Tungsten (V) peroxide is correct.

Nitric acid is correct.

Aluminum acetate is correct. Either way you wrote it is fine, but I generally use CH3COO- for acetate since it shows the structure and is commonly used anyways. C2H3O2- could have other isomers and so is slightly more ambiguous. I use (OOCCOO)2- for oxalate for the same reason.
