Need the formulas and the names of around 1000 chemical substances they do not need to be in any order or any type. If any of you know any lists or any way I could find many of them at once I would really appreciate it.
Example:
CO - Carbon monoxide

I think what the teacher wants is for you to think up about 1000 substances and then find out what the chemical formula is.
I bet they did not want you to have a list dropped on your lap.
for instance in cooking you could use
baking soda - sodium bicarbonate - NaHCO3
I would think you could find many substance in the kitchen.

1000? Teacher is insane.
Think wiki.

he didn't say 1000 but he said it has to be thick as a book and how he said to do it I rounded that 40 substances fit in each page so 1000/40 = 25 pages that's as thick as it gets and
@billnotgatez
yeah he said he wanted us to find them or create them but he also said to go to the internet and look for as many as we can, and it would be helpful if I can get some of them to cut the work, I gotta also translate them.

Just get ahold of the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics from your local library and start copying ;)

I found the CFC Chemistry and Physics handbook online, the one that renge mentioned.

Hope that helps.
