What do you call the acid formed with nitrogen that has two oxygen atoms?

D.  Nitrous acid

Given Options:

A.  Nitric

B.  Nitrous

C.  Hydronitrous acid

D.  Nitrous acid

Explanation:

The following information is provided with the question on Edmentum:

Ternary acids

Ternary acids contain three elements. Here, we will discuss those that contain hydrogen, oxygen, and a third element. These ternary acids are named according to the number of oxygen atoms in each molecule. The most common form is given the -ic suffix, but no prefix is used. So the ternary acid of hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur is sulfuric acid (H2SO4).

A second acid with the same elements

Sometimes a second acid is formed that contains the same three elements, but fewer oxygen atoms. Still no prefix is used, but the suffix changes from -ic to -ous. So H2SO3 is sulfurous acid.

A third acid with the same elements

If a third acid is formed with the same three elements but even fewer oxygen atoms, the prefix hypo- is added along with the suffix -ous. H2SO2 is called hyposulfurous acid.

Conclusion:

According to the given information, the acid formed with nitrogen that has two oxygen atoms would have the suffix changed from -ic to -ous.  Hydronitrous acid can be eliminated because these should be no prefix. Therefore, nitrous acid is the correct answer.

I hope this helps!

which speech are you talking about?

either online or traditional classroom can work for students. which is better will depend on students and teacher. students may have trouble following a lesson in classroom while they can study at their own pace online. other students may have trouble staying focus on their own in online classes. teachers are more used to classroom teaching but they may also be more worry about their jobs teaching online classes and work harder.
