For question F3 in the textbook, it asks what the formula for nitric acid is. Will we have to memorize what atoms are present in certain molecules, or are we going to be tested on our ability to right an empirical/molecular formula based on a molecule's name?
F3
a) Write the formula for nitric acid. (b) Without doing a calculation, estimate which element in nitric acid occurs with the greatest mass percentage.

Re: Text Book Problems
I'm not completely sure, but I don't think we'll need to know specific formulaic names. I would just know basic compound names like CO2 and others like that.

Re: Text Book Problems
I don't think we have to know net ionic equations or name compounds that are not common like water or elements by themselves. If anything they will be given if it is needed for a problem. It is not one of the concepts that is included in outline 1 or 2.
