Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Correct Names of the Acids

To determine which acid is incorrectly paired with its name, we need to know the correct names for each of the given chemical formulas:

  1. $\mathrm{HNO}_{2}$ is known as nitrous acid.
  2. HBr is known as hydrobromic acid.
  3. HI is known as hydroiodic acid.
  4. $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$ is known as sulfuric acid.
  5. $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}$ is known as carbonic acid.
Step 2: Compare the Given Names with the Correct Names

Now, compare the given names with the correct names:

  1. $\mathrm{HNO}_{2}-$ nitrous acid (Correct)
  2. HBr - hydrobromic acid (Correct)
  3. HI - hydroiodic acid (Correct)
  4. $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}-$ sulfuric acid (Correct)
  5. $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}-$ carbonate acid (Incorrect, should be carbonic acid)

Final Answer

The acid that is incorrectly paired with its name is:

\[ \boxed{\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} - \text{carbonate acid}} \]

Chapter 04 Homework 12. Market equilibrium and disequilibrium The following graph shows the monthly demand and supply curves in the market for combs. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly. The equilibrium price in this market is per comb, and the equilibrium quantity is combs per month. Complete the following table by indicating at each price whether there is a shortage or surplus in the market, the amount of that shortage or surplus, and whether this places upward or downward pressure on prices.
