Hi Dani. Don't you have access to science books and chemistry books anymore? Doesn't your school have a library? To rely on internet sites for schoolwork is to squander your talents.

How about: acetic, acetylsalicylic, ascorbic, atropic, benzoic, boric, bromic, carbonic, chromic, citric, euphoric, fluoboric, folic, hydrochloric, hydrofluoric, gypric, lactic, malic, nitric, oxalic, phosphoric, picric, sulfamic, sulfuric, tannic ...
In the spirit of the internet, 23 of these are found in books, and two I simply made up :-)
