18. HCl (aq)
19. H2SO4(aq)
20. HNO2(aq)
21. HI (aq)
22. HCH3COO(aq)
23. HF (aq)
24. H3P (aq)
25. HClO3(aq)
26. H2CO3(aq)

Here are the names of the acids listed:

  1. HClO4(aq) - Perchloric acid
  2. H3PO4(aq) - Phosphoric acid
  3. HCl (aq) - Hydrochloric acid
  4. H2SO4(aq) - Sulfuric acid
  5. HNO2(aq) - Nitrous acid
  6. HI (aq) - Hydroiodic acid
  7. HCH3COO(aq) - Acetic acid (or Ethanoic acid)
  8. HF (aq) - Hydrofluoric acid
  9. H3P (aq) - Phosphine (not an acid; typically not referred to as an acid in an aqueous context)
  10. HClO3(aq) - Chloric acid
  11. H2CO3(aq) - Carbonic acid

Please note that #24 is a molecular compound rather than an acid. If you intended to refer to phosphoric acid, the correct formula would be H3PO4.
