I have searched diligently and can't find what FA stands for; however, I did find that FA 1 or FA2 ........FA 7 are codes used to label solution or solids on exams. As I understand it the code for the chemical is on the label and if needed the chemical is identified in the appropriate question on the exam. I don't know why the name of the chemical can't be placed on the label nor what the letters FA stand for.

Cambridge uses FA 1, FA 2 etc to name chemicals or solutions. What does FA stand for?
