How do you name things like sulfuric acid and the other acids? How can you tell their formula based on the name?

There are two types of acids: those that contain oxygen, and those that do not. If they do not contain oxygen, take the name of the anion, add the prefix hydro, and end with -ic (then add "acid"). Example: HF, hydroflouric acid. To name acids with oxygen, find the name of the polyatomic ion, then change "-ate" to "-ic" or "-ite" to "-ous."
