Question

Find the number of acid(s) which are having per as well as peroxy prefix in its name from the following: $C_6H_5COOOH$, $HClO_4$, $H_2S_2O_8$, $H_4P_2O_8$, $H_2SO_5$, $HNO_4$

Answer 2

The question asks for acids having both "per" and "peroxy" prefixes in its name.

1. Peroxybenzoic acid ($C_6H_5COOOH$): Has "peroxy", but not "per" as a distinct prefix.
2. Perchloric acid ($HClO_4$): Has "per", but not "peroxy".
3. Peroxodisulfuric acid ($H_2S_2O_8$): Has "peroxy", but not "per" as a distinct prefix.
4. Peroxodiphosphoric acid ($H_4P_2O_8$): Has "peroxy", but not "per" as a distinct prefix.
5. Peroxomonosulfuric acid ($H_2SO_5$): Has "peroxy", but not "per" as a distinct prefix.
6. Peroxonitric acid ($HNO_4$): Has "peroxy", but not "per" as a distinct prefix.

No acid in the list fits the criteria of having both "per" and "peroxy" as distinct prefixes in its name.
